I’m Back, Baby!

Seven weeks between appointments is just too much.  You should see the walls of my house… they’re covered in tally marks counting down the days like a prison cell at the Château d’If.

Despite my long absence, I don’t have much to say.   Below are pictures from my 56th appointment with Horizakura.  He began shading the background of my right leg, including thickening the rock lines.  I really love the way those thick rock lines contrast with the thinner lines of the waves and cherry blossoms.  It makes me all the more excited to see how the cave on my knee will look once those rocks are THICC.

Look upon my thighs ye mighty, and despair…

Books Closed!

No tattoo appointments until next week (Horizakura and I have been like ships in the night), but in the meantime I thought I would give a little share of a new tattoo podcast I’ve been listening to.  It is called Books Closed and is hosted by Andrew Stortz.  The content centers around changes and trends in the tattoo world and is also just chock full of fun personal stories from tattoo veterans.  I’m sure the content has a deeper level of interest for actual tattoo artists, but even as an enthusiast I have had a great time listening.  Give him a follow on YouTube or something.  Tell him Jordan sent ya!…

…don’t actually do that. He has no idea who I am.
