Who I'd like to meet: Below is a short (10 min) documentary about me, contemporary tattooing, and the history of Sea Tramp Tattoo Co. It stars Don Deaton talking about learning to tattoo on the Pike in Long Beach when the shop was still owned by Bert Grimm. Sea Tramp Tattoo Co.
I was thinking of a super sexy girl unicorn fighting a nazi wizard with flaming nunchucks and lazer beam ray gun and polar bears with cross bows shooting at shaved goats that are buffed up and clad with heavy armor......maybe a tribal symbol that means kick ass mother fucker right next to it. Full back piece bro, what do you think?
I am wondering if the guy who did this piece for me is still employed there! He wanted some pics of it when it healed(4 his portfolio) + I want more portraits by him( forgot his name) This is me!
Hey Jeff, long time no talk, I was wonderin' how you were doing. I was walking along The Pike down in Long Beach the other day (just a short drive away) and when I came across an old tattoo shop/museum there, I couldn't help but think of you. I wish you may have prosperous and healthy new year, and I hope to catch up with you soon.
Thank you again for this beautiful piece, it really means a lot to me because it reminds me of Angkor Wat with all the stonework that makes up the temple. It's unfortunate people like to steal pieces of it. I'll be seeing you at your shop soon, so long as the hubby doesn't book with you before I do!!
Are you going to be around late Dec. early Jan? I have the sickest idea to finish off your forearm piece. I think it will be a master work of art. Where and when are you going in Europa. That is freakin awesome.
Yes, by God you did. and OMIGOD still love it. Treasure it, it's my little phoenix that I rub when things are going yucky to remind myself--it's all good.
I want to get a little something to commemurate my time here before I start to ache for the West Coast again. Do you have any friends up here in the city? Are you going to be around for the Holidays? I Heard a funny quote today. "I came up here for bubble gum and ass kicking and I'm fresh out of bubble gum."
