stuck, poked

after doing the occasional intentionally crude nefarious stick 'n poke tattoo here and there over the years, my old friend jason friedman persuaded me to come do a few out of his newly opened VIOLET TIGER TATTOO PARLOR. turns out that when using proper inks and needles in a sterile environment you can produce a refined and enjoyable product, even within the confines of the hand-poked process. was able to do 20+ over what was supposed to be a limited three-week period. though not my primary focus, it was still a good time. perhaps more to come in the future.

london


we went to europe for two and a half weeks in december, starting in london. just now getting to sifting through all the photos. while the agenda wasn't graffiti or art specific (more to the point, it was specifically NOT graffiti intentional), we still found time to catch some tags and put up a few posters. as well as 5 days worth of museums and other london adventuring even less relevant to this program than the pics here. endure more euro documentation as the photos filter through, as upon return i can't understand why it took me so long to get there.

san francisco pit stop

bit of a late pass on a quick trip to san francisco. mostly stood around pretending to do install for mark flood's show at the SFAQ affiliated evergold projects gallery. otherwise ate, caught up with friends, ran around the streets, didn't take enough photos. been a little slow to update the blog for a while now actually. a stronger commitment to documentation and consistency coming soon.
