CROSSING THE POND

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

The last weeks now seem like a blur, something between the jet lag and gambling, along with the new studio, must have made us miss the beauty of London, but then again that’s why there’s pictures!  always a sight to see, and never taken for granted, the beautiful landmarks of London stuck on our minds…

(Above) Mark and Jose in front of the London Bridge (Below) Gustavo, Jose, and Mark posing with Big Ben…

” The most famous clock in the world, this is a tired picture of us, completely exhausted in front of BIG BEN. That was our last night in London and we HAD to go see the clock. Right about then I really felt like choking Jose, just don’t tell him that, but down below…seeing one of those phone booths that I had seen all my life, I had to make a phone call haha” -Mark Osuna

We had seen a postcard of The London Eye landmark, so we decided to make our own Halmark moment, Gustavo and Mark posing in front with the brilliant and surreal lights at night…it was a scene like no other…

The London Tattoo Convention was something else. Some of the strongest competitors and artists were in attendance and it was all seriousness the moment we entered…With all our hard work and fight, we came home with Best Black and White, 3rd Prize…

The inscription reads “Votre Future” which translates to “Your Future, ” one more for Lowrider Tattoo…
