Tattooed Feet

Yesterday I did this little elephant on Melanie's foot. Thanks for the skin, Melanie!

Maggie Maye's Tucson Tattoo Store Front

I've finished painting the store front of Maggie Maye's. The shop has always had a desert themed mural with the sun, mountains and cactus but I thought it needed to be jazzed up a bit. The mountains and cactus are popped out and plastered over for a bit of a 3-D effect. I actually enjoy doing this sort of thing and will be jumping into painting the east strip of our complex soon and starting a larger moon mural.

I've been busy working on the new mural for the front of Maggie Maye's. Of course I've had help. George is plastering in the mountains. They need one more coat and in the meantime I will finish painting the sun. Last but not least the "Maggie Maye's" lettering will go on top of the sun. I love the new and more dynamic mural. It's a nice way to celebrate the next 10 years at Maggie Mayes Tucson Tattoo Studio.

Fixing up old Tattoos at Maggie Mayes

Just some fix up work I was privileged to do. The first picture is the orchid before the fix up.

Big Day at Maggie Mayes Tattoo

I spent today scraping and patching the front exterior at Maggie Mayes. It hasn't been repainted in 10 years and it sure is time! I love doing this sort of thing and love it even more that I am prepping the wall at Maggie Mayes Tattoo. I'll try to remember to take before and after pictures of the progress. We are going to reconstruct the mountains, sun and cactus mural but with a lot more color and punch. The next 10 years are going to be even better!

Religious Tolerance

I had a wonderful time today tattooing this piece on Gilbert. It symbolizes religious tolerance. I learned that although Gilbert is Catholic he "wanted to be covered".
