Looks like I started something.... a #quarantine painting commission has led to bro tats on Graham and Boyer who share a love of #alf & #danzig and their love of cats. #alfzig #notofthisworld #nothingbiteslikeido #haIkillme #glenndanzig #misfits @glenndanzigofthemisfits @officialmisfits #acecustomtattoo @acecustomtattoo #chalicetattoostudio @chalicetattoostudio (at Ace Custom Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWvZ1eFnPt/?igshid=178k042j6rt4o

Thanks to @therealsirshannon for having me rattle his ankle for a little over 3 hours today. It feels so good to be tattooing again. And it feels even better that all of my clients are getting super badass tattoos instead of lame ideas they stole off the internet. Color will happen in August. #staytuned #skulltattoo #fingerwaves #foottattoo #ACECUSTOMTATTOO @acecustomtattoo #chalicetattoostudio @chalicetattoostudio (at Ace Custom Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWtyhAlqrG/?igshid=2haxe2aq8bop

"HEADLESS" from a series I'm calling #Drop 20X16 acrylic on panel. This was the 3rd of this series. Swipe to see the collection at current capacity. It's probably still growing until I run out of paint. I would love to have a full exhibit of these eventually so nothing is currently for sale. For now, I'm staying busy (and sane-ish) during this mandatory shut down of my tattoo shop and my distance from @darcynutt and tattooing. #acecustomtattoo @acecustomtattoo #chalicetattoostudio @chalicetattoostudio @Quarantineschmuarantine #liquitex #windsorandnewton #goldenacrylics #acrylicassault #acrylicpainting #theartistformallyknownas #fuckallyallfornotmakingmoreart (at Ace Custom Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAfuz2slhg3/?igshid=e233wxxams70

"HAAA! I KILL ME." acrylic on panel 22"x30" commissioned by my friend Graham. He wanted a #danzig and #alf themed painting due to their shared love of cats. This just felt like the right path to illustrate exactly that.

That time I did a backpiece on my friend @joshpaynetattoo We rifled through this, hitting it every week or 2. Good times! Getting started tattooing again will be exciting. #hourglasstattoo #snaketattoo #cherryblossomtattoo #skulltattoo #fingerwaves #backpiecetattoo #fullbacktattoo @tattoopen #acecustomtattoo @acecustomtattoo #chalicetattoostudio @chalicetattoostudio (at Ace Custom Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_lJSugFnJi/?igshid=1v57qnhj9t1

My obsession with water didn't start when I started tattooing. I did this #aquatint #etching in 1990 at 17 before my senior year of high school in #governorsschoolforthearts "J Walker" 8x10 ink on paper #Quarantineschmuarantine #fuckallyallfornotmakingmoreart (at Ace Custom Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_SL4aplF2o/?igshid=4im0em6c2w8k
