Brian's next tattoo...

I had this one in mind for a week or so, there's a tattoo place that just moved in recently a few stores down and the owner has been in to have several skull themed pieces framed... and there's something to do with roses in the business name.  I did this one in about 6 hours.  Probably a little slow but I did a pencil sketch first, then ink then the color.  So now I'm trying to do artwork specifically tailored to the people who frequent the stripmall.  I remember back when I ran a gallery in an actual mall, that was great.  Thousands of different tastes walking by every day.  Anyway I feel like I'm an artistic fisherman, baiting a hook and casting out right to that specific fish over in those weeds.  So Brian, hope you like it, I want to see it on your shoulder by this weekend.  And Jen, seriously, tell me what you want as specific as you can and I can make it for you.  Something with a faerie?  Some tribal shapes?  I saw the ones on your blog, so if you can, gimme a few more details to cruise on.  By the way, it's almost the weekend!
