GET IT ON FILM.

Monday, August 16th, 2010

This is the age of information–today, anything’s possible  for any type of individual. But just because opportunity is available for all…….on google, doesn’t mean the ability to put forth the effort, and the quality of the product is the same. Sure, you can buy a nice expensive camera, with specialized lenses and hi tech software to transform it, but that doesn’t necessarily title you as a photographer…..far from it. Photography is an art, and as artists there’s always the vision. The relationship between tattooing and photography is a classic one and go hand in hand with creating dialogue to the viewer through visual means. And because literally anyone or any ‘thing’ can press a button, I think the industry at large has forgotten the value of what quality photography consists of and it’s true gift is.  Take a look at what you didn’t see from the past trip to Europe through eye’s of the homey Willie T.

ELCO

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

We just recently returned from The Netherlands with more stories to tell.  First off Elco our good friend from Europe was the first to get tattoed, he wanted a typical gangster chick with a hat, and thats what he got.

He sat through the whole session without moving enjoying every moment and at the end the final piece was well worth it.

After 4 and a half hrs Elco was proud to sport his new Lowrider Tattoo which by the way won best black and grey the following day at The Breda Tattoo Convention.

If Micky Mouse were here you would think it was Disneyland. With cobblestone roads, cathedral walls and clean streets Oudenaarde, established in 1193 is a European delight.
