For my friend Daniel.

Tattoo’d this on Chris. The Yankees tattoo was done by a “sketchy biker chick”. I wish I did it.

My friend Fernando posted this video. Growing up in New Jersey we were more Seaside Heights kind of kids, not that it is any better or worse. Really raw footage with a nice feel. I am going to have to find the full documentary.

 From my experience, someone is usually let down.

3 skulls. All facing right.

Boyd Rice on a really weird news clip from “Good Afternoon Colorado” aired sometime in the mid-90’s. I love it.

Charlie was back in town and I tattoo’d his ditch to match the other side I did a couple months ago.

Jeb gave me a golfball sized spot to do a young Napoleon Bonaparte. Jeb has a body suit but handled this like your run of the mill NYU freshman. 

An interesting theory involves Napoleon’s brother Joseph Bonaparte  whom owned an estate in Bordentown New Jersey called Breeze Point:

Some believe Napoleon was never truly exiled to St. Helena, but lived out the rest of his days there with him. As much as I would like to believe Napoleon has historical roots in my homestate, I think he probably died here and would have been happy for it:

Hobo Hideaway.

June 8, 2009

I found this photo I took a few years ago on the beach of the Raritan Bay in Keyport NJ. This dog came running full speed out of the bushes  and  whizzed right passed us to just disappear again. I do not know how but I actually managed to take a decent photo. One of those things. This was the first day Justin and I found the Hobo Hideaway which would turn into one of our main haunts for 2 years.

Tomorrow Jeff and I will start recording the first ThunderBeing ep.

Natural History.

June 6, 2009

I tattoo’d this on Jacob from Sweden.

I was walking aimlessly around Bensonhurst on Wednesday when I came across this situation in a house window.

…And it reminds me of this:

A painting for an upcoming spread of polaroid photography I took. It will be featured in issue #1 of STORYTELLING magazine. So far there are a number of great contributors and the entire venture looks promising.
