Shooting Gallery, San Francisco | October 10th, 2009

I have been working on a new body of work for a solo show in San Francisco at The Shooting Gallery- and it opens on the 15th of August, runs through September 8th...
I started painting tattooed artists in 2005, obsessively documenting the men and women that define contemporary american tattoo art. My dedication and enthusiasm for the art form gradually opened doors for me to learn the craft from some of the greatest tattoo artists in the world. I find myself at a crossroads, with an unwavering passion for painting and an equal desire to practice the craft of tattooing.
Presently, my life is consumed with tattooing, the art of tattoo and documentation of tattooing through painting.
Every day, the intimacy of tattooing saturates all that I do. It keeps going deeper, layered and more personal.

Tattooed Portraits: Snapshots is a glimpse into that intimacy.
