You will most likely have to wait to get seat time with Norm himself FYI...but it's worth it....

You'll see some of the work he's done on my brother on his site.
Looks like some really good work!

My tat is just like my Z, heard of, but never seen.

Clay's.... well, he really is white, he ended up with a full body sleeve. His message of color doesn't matter is really awesome and I hope more people can be like him to prove that the only thing that holds down a person is their own self.

BTW, Robbie's bro has some decent work on both arms and his legs.
This is my favorite of my brothers (sleeves). The Ed Roth art compilation. He said he was done with it but when I saw him a few weeks ago he started adding to it down his forearm.

True, but who wants a cheap looking tattoo. Nothing worse than jail house tats or some home made looking crap. It's something permanently being etched into your skin, no reason to cheap out now.

We had to make a trip to glen burnie to pick up our black splash tiles since the local store didn't have enough. Figured what the hell, lets stop by his shop.

Small front of the house but the two guys there were very friendly and seemed very willing to work with me. Asked me to write down a bunch of things I'm into and to see if anything comes to mind for him in a design. I'll write a list and drop it off for him. Said hes booked up til sometime in nov, not that I'm in a hurry.

Its a bit of a drive but Crucial Tattoo in Salisbury MD. Pretty much all the artist there are legit but Phil is the truth. He has done 90% of my tattoos, i actually go this thursday to finish my sleeve. His work won first place in the Baltimore tattoo convention last month for best female tattoo.

It will no doubt involve AZN wimmens, food products, motorcycles and photo chopping dongs into other people's hands. But that's just my guess....

Honestly I don't know.

Martial Arts
Food
Music, piano/keyboards
Asian culture
Being open minded to people/races/other cultures
Motorcycles/Cars

Add all that together with a The Rock style tattoo/Bio Mech....

I'm lost.

Alberto what do you think of day of the dead? There's a guy in odenton that does awesome day of the dead stuff.

I don't celebrate it but I think its pretty cool. I'm sure you know the origins of it, if I was Mexican Id get a nice DOTD tat in an instant. I like darker themed stuff, I don't find it depressing, if anything for me, it would be a reminder to live it up today, because tomorrow is no guarantee.

In fact one of my ideas is for something that would mean the above to me.

Sick examples online for some of those...
