OHIO

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

Our boy Charles Suggs flew in all the way from the Gateway state of Ohio to check out our studio and to get some Lowrider Ink.  He considers himself to be a very blessed individual so a tattoo of Jesus Christ was the perfect choice.

After several hours of pain he was finally able to get up and check out his new tat.  pictures speak louder than words, he just kept smiling and said he had no words to express how much he liked the fresh piece of ink.  All of us here at Lowrider Tattoo thank him and all the other good people that support us

ohio-2whether it might be a local client or one from acroos the glove, we welcome everybody and we open our doors and our hearts to everyone.

Thanks a million.

THE HOMIE NEIL

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

Our very good friend Neil stopped by the shop once again for his second and last session on a piece that’s very popular with religious tattoo collectors.  Al Pachanka’s Jesus Christ is among one of the most popular pieces that Jose has the honor to tattoo on his client’s skin.  That is why Jose must one up himself everytime he produces this magnificent piece, he must give it something new every single time in order to stun his client and others who witness the work of art.

FAMILY REUNION.

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

Our boy Sean came in once again for another session on his leg piece that he has been patiently waiting to finish.  After about 8 hours of pain, Jose was finally done with the piece that was inspired by the lovely Kim Kardashian.  Since it was a packed house that night, everyone enjoyed the final piece and it became a great night to learn a little bit more from Jose.

The piece itself is mesmerizing.  The flow of the hair looks like it’s catching the wind and the sparkle in her eyes make your believe she’s right in front of your own eyes.

What made the night great was the fact that we had our family from the Costa Mesa Lowrider Tattoo shop hanging with us and nothing but great things came from it.  Stories, jokes, laughter and of comradery  filled the shop, which in turn helped everyone learn far much more between each other.

Stay tuned for greater things to come.

SOUTH OF THE BORDER.

Friday, January 7th, 2011

2010 was a great year for the Lowrider Family.  We traveled around the globe and seen many amazing sights. It has been a tremendous year for us and it’s time to give some thanks and blessings back to our supporters and those of us who are less fortunate. So we came up with the perfect plan and headed down south to Tecate, Mexico where we arrived at a children’s orphanage with our bags filled with toys, clothes, and much needed love.

When we arrived, we laid all of the video games on the table and we set up the flat screen and Rock Band on the playstation 3.  Mark patiently awaited his turn and when it came, he sang his heart out to Guns ‘N’ Roses’ Sweet Child o’ Mine.

The kids were amazed to see Mikey drawing, he drew a crowd and taught them the basics to become great artists.

As a Lowrider family member, Mikey Doodles is making a great impact thus far.  Since he’s never been south of the border, we decided to give him a tour.  Donkey-Zebra’s and sexy nurses were among some of the attractions.

Art is everywhere, but Mark didn’t care much for it, he was more interested in a piece of…

When the day came to an end, it was time to get some food and have a beer or two before we came back to the states.  As always…I don’t always drink beer, but when I do, I preffer Dos X.

Stay thirsty my friends.
