Phoenix cross breed

Did some line work in this today. Client sat like a camp. Up next some color.......

In Greek mythology, a phoenix or phenix(Ancient Greek φοίνιξ phóinīx) is a long-lived bird that is cyclically regenerated or reborn. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. The phoenix was subsequently adopted as a symbol in Early Christianity.

In his study of the phoenix, R. van der Broek summarizes, that, in the historical record, the phoenix "could symbolize renewal in general as well as the sun, time, the empire, metempsychosis, consecration,resurrection, life in the heavenly Paradise,Christ, Mary, virginity, the exceptional man, and certain aspects of Christian life".^[1]

New Beginnings and new visions

As of April 2013 Rebellious Tattoo Studio will no longer be. My business partner and I are going our separate ways. I will be going off to do my own ventures. This is something that had to be done. I wish him all the luck on what ever it is he decides to do. I myself need to be in and around a sober environment. I want to grow as an artist and be around like mind artist. I want to maintain a respectable place for both artist and clients alike. I am still taking on all my clients and taking tattoo appointments. I will not be stopping tattooing durning this transition. I will still be tattooing out of a Professional tattoo studio and will still be local. I want to thank each and everyone of you that has been supportive and has been there for me. Thank you. With much love and respect.

My piece of art for the plastic smile art show

About two years ago. My friend bobby (who played guitar for a band called Loot N Rok) approached me to do a painting on a old guitar he was given by his dad. This guitar had been used to write a lot of songs so it had some sentimental value to it. I had started on it and re-started on it several times with a few different but similar designs for the painting. Then I thought just keep it simple and have fun. I decide that I was going to have an art show at my shop and what better piece to display then my buddy's guitar. The idea behind the painting is that of the love between his wife and him (if you know them then you know what I mean). The rose represents her and the skull him. The droplets are the connection between the two. I used real references of a skull and a rose that I had for the painting. I hope you all enjoy this piece.
