I wake up and go to work like it’s just normal day to day… but every time I look outside I feel like it should just be on fire. I know I’m not the only one thinking this.

I’m taking the time I can to enjoy the little things, and post my tattoos 💖

Even though the Bills lost, there’s hope for the Sabres, right? …right…?!

Jokes aside, I really enjoyed creating this for Will and I’d love to do more Sports logos! Or any logos like this!

Tattoo inspired by The Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
I’ve got another session to finish this piece, but I’m too obsessed with the current results not to share the first session!!

Working on a Bloodborne sleeve and this is one of my favorite elements on it! I can’t wait to show off the whole thing, but enjoy!

A beautiful memorial for Kalie, maybe one day I’ll understand how to work social media.

Knowing that over half the voters wanted this… it’s really doing a number on me today. So just know: when I post about inconsequential things like paintings of dragons, I’m not ignoring the world around me. It’s 1) my job 2) a coping mechanism and 3)hopefully a source of enjoyment for you

Looking forward to the amazing projects and tattoos that I have lined up in 2025. Finding the light everywhere we can ✨

I don’t get to do a lot of manga/ anime based tattoos so it’s a huge treat for the weeb of my early teenage years when I do! #rochester #rochesterny #tattoo #tattooartist #animetattoo #mangatattoo #attackontitan

If we can take one thing from the way lynch talks about art I think it should be to never again dilute your vision and don't put off any art you want to make because it all dies with you, there's no other way, there's no one else

Should I upload my videos here too? Or just my photos? I’m absolutely awful at social media, and an even more awkward person in general… sharing text posts I’ll be even more cringe… but I’d love to talk more 😭🫠

I think it's a question that every artist has at least once, but I sometimes wonder, "Was my art style better a few years ago?"
Although skill is improving every day, for some reason older works sometimes seem more appealing.
I always feel that art is a battle with myself.

I will not be listening to Carrie Underwood’s music due to her agreement to appear at Trump’s inauguration.

This replaces my prior reason for not listening to her music: it’s not good

I wanna ask my American friends, how do you deal with all this anxiety and tension?

Because if I lived in a place where:

- A single injury or illness could ruin my life financially,
- So many people carried guns in public,
- I could get sued for the tiniest thing,

I think I'd die from stress.

I think Bluesky is a great platform and I’m here to stay. However, a bookmark function would make the experience SO much better and much more functional for research/ information gathering, especially for reporters. Pretty please @support.bsky.team @bsky.app ?

Things that make my eye twitch:

#47. Over editing a pic of a tattoo to the point it is just ridiculously unrealistic.

Look, we all know unadjusted pics never look as good as the actual tattoo. Why project unrealistic expectations of what is possible?!

Some watercolor blossoms I finished up the other day! I’m so happy that I get to create more and more pieces like this!

#32. Posting a picture of a tattoo that is covered in ink residue, blood/plasma and glide.

How is anyone supposed to make out that bangarang of a tattoo you just poured 6 hrs of your soul into?!

A beautiful portrait of a kitty I had the pleasure of creating for a lovely client!
Pet portraits are some of my favorites!
