technophobe

this is already my second try and i'm getting a little peeved......let me explain. so last night the master of the blog taught me all these new swishy fancy thingamegiggies i can try to do on my blog.....and so far......."try" has been the operative word.

Anyways, here are 2 pieces i did at the Singapore tattoo convention. The 1st pic is on a really sweet tattooer from Korea (shhhhhh! there are no tattooers in Korea.....move along)

The 2nd piece is on Ricky Sta.Ana's wife.

I was stoked to be getting the chance to be doing such awesome fun pieces. I dont think there was one piece i did at the show that i didnt really enjoy. 

anyways, i was getting there but now i gotta go work.....so not so fancy now eh? sorry! i'll find more stuff to post later hopefully and then i'll get FANCY

It's all go from here!

So I just flew back to HK late last night after working at the 1st annual Singapore tattoo convention, which went down a treat. I was pretty much fully booked which was great as I only had one person booked in over e mail!
The last day of the convention was my birthday and i managed to get Jo harrison to squeeze me in a sweet ass tattoo before i started work! (thanks!)
anyways, i'll post pics of the work i did and other stuff as soon as i find the cable to connect my camera to the computer! (havent quite unpacked, and i'm pretty sure i'm missing a lot...i think my frontal lobe might have slid under the bed.
Anyways, so went straight back to work to find out the guest artist i was expecting next week is here already coz he had visa trouble in good ol' China.
so it's all go! I havent designed ANY of the tattoos i've got in 2morrow, so its gonna be a long night!
Anyways, thought i'd better post at least a few rambles to show i'm still alive and havent been sucked into the digusting abyss that was under my hotel bed (which we soon discovered was a sex hotel) it was pretty rough. weird noises late at night that were even a consenting female or some sort of most definately un-consenting animal of kinds!
Anyways, i'd better stop procrastinating and get drawing...

second post as planned!

here is the other stuff i wanted to post up. i really like this piece.the client was sweet as a nut and gave me a fair amount of freedom with the designs which is never a bad thing!
anyways, i'm about to leave work, so happy new year everyone!



i've found out about some interesting upcoming projects today which i'm pretty excited about, one is a magazine job cant say what mag yet, and apparantly there's gonna be some mystery guest on the cover, i dunno yet....they dont tell me much, but it looks like i'll be doing a lot of designing for the feature, and may even get a whole page dedicated to Star Crossed!

here's my new dog by the way! (i'm not lying, he really is gonna be a rock star).

good tattoos. bad back

so i've had a fair few nice little pieces i've been working on recently. and i havent posted anything it what seems like a trillion days, but i've had a terrible back and had to take a few days off work to try to rest...hasnt done much good by the feel of it, but i got tomorrow and the next day off for new years too.
anyways, here's some recent work. i actually am gonna post 2 blogs today (if all goes to plan which most likely will not happen!)

battleship's blazing!

so here's a 4 hour job i did on a poor buggers elbow!
(tom, i owe u a drink after that!)

i really like this piece! was worried i'd lose thje stencil coz elbows suck fat stuff, but all went well, and the funny thing is, there was actually some stencil still on there by the time i'd finished!!! (the smoke comin' thru the clouds.)
anyways, enjoy!



i'm starting off a half sleeve tomorrow which i'm gonna draw in a min (i had a no show for my last app.) so now i don't gotta draw when i go home!

and yes, i know the pics don't fit on the page, but they do on my alive not dead page, so check out the pic's in all their glory here.......... www.alivenotdead.com/juliawilson

here's a likkle itty bitty heart on a forearm, hearts aint too bad neither ya know! it's awesome i'm starting to get more work like this coming in now...keeps me smiling!



i've had a fair few nice little pieces come my way recently, which is never a bad thing. it's been nice having a second artist here to lighten some of the workload too. got some mammoth pieces getting booked in in january. 2 full sleeves on passers by who are convinced they'll be able to sit through day in day out sittings...... ouch....!
