=MINI'S!!!=

 I WAS ASKED IF I WAS DOING A FRIDAY THE 13TH SPECIAL... WHICH I REPLIED TO WITH A 'YES, OF COURSE'... NOT EVEN KNOWING IT WAS COMING UP IN A COUPLA DAYS. SOME PEOPLE SHOWED, AND I ACTUALLY HAD TO PUSH THEM OUT A BIT BECAUSE I HAD BOOKED THE DAY WITH REGULAR WORK, NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE RANDOM OCCASION OF FRIDAY THE 13TH TO GET TATTOOED. SO, TO MAKE AMENDS WITH THOSE WHO PARTICIPATE IN THIS WHATEVER KINDA DAY... AND MAKE PEACE WITH MYSELF IN REGARDS TO TAKING CARE OF MY FRIENDS AND CLIENTS WANTS... I'M GONNA RUN A SPECIAL ON SOME RANDOM DAY ALONG THE SAME LINES, WITHOUT REGARD TO WHATEVER FRIDAY THE 13TH IS BELIEVED TO BE.
SO, SOON AS I HAVE ENOUGH DRAWINGS PREPARED, I WILL RUN A CHEAPLY PRICED OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU GUYS TO GET SOME FUN ZAPS. I'LL PICK THE MOST RANDOM OF DAYS... BUT DO $40 - $50 TATTOOS IN FULL COLOR (OR BLACK AND GREY IF YOU PREFER) TATTOOS

=STEPH'S WISDOM=

I'VE COME TO KNOW THESE TYPE OF TATTOOS TO BE MY 'THING'... OFTEN ASKED WHAT I LIKE TO TO OR WHAT MY SPECIALTY IS... I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO ANSWER.
I WILL HOWEVER, DRAW, PAINT AND IN A HEARTBEAT TATTOO THESE TYP OF BUSTS... I GUESS WHICH WE COULD CALL 'VICTORIAN'. BUT TATTOOING THEM, THEY BECOME A BIT DARKER AND MORE LIKE NEO-TRADITIONAL IN STYLE. SO, IF I PICK A 'THING' ... THEN IT WILL BE THESE... PRETTY LADIES IN A SMART TATTOO STYLE. SOMETHING DONE TO LAST. AND PRETTY!
STEPHANIE CAME TO ME FOR A LADY REPRESENTING WISDOM, IN THE WAY THAT A WOMAN IS USED METAPHORICALLY TO REPRESENT WISDOM IN PROVERBS. YES, YES, YES!!! THIS ONE'S DOPE TO ME BECAUSE NOT ONLY DID SHE TRUST ME WITH FREE RIEGN ON TATTOOING... BUT ITS DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE BIBLE, WHICH FOR ME, HAS BECOME A CORE REASON FOR TATTOOING... MINISTERING THE MESSAGE OF THE BIBLE, JESUS CHRIST AND ONE ALMIGHTY GOD.
EXTRA BONUS TO REFER TO WOMEN IN THE BEST OF WAYS, BECAUSE, AS A MAN... I STRIVE FOR THE UTMOST WITH THE OTHER HALF OF LIFE IN MY DAYS ON EARTH... WOMAN.
THANKS STEPH... ON SO MANY LEVELS. WORDUP.
