Oregon Coast

A gentleman once took me to the Oregon coast. It was very windy and beautiful. The gulls huddled together and looked for sand fleas. The sky was yellow and there was a storm just off the coast. I remember the way the sand blew across the beach. Here's a photo taken of me on that very day.

I quit.

After 13 years, I finally quit that filthy habit, drowned it in candle wax and let it solidify.

Blow Your Mind

I have been working on some art prints that just might make you go Awe.
These first edition prints will be with me at these two upcoming tattoo expos:

W.T.F. Art Show

Featured above is Vyvyn Lazonga and the late Gypsy Jill.
I took this photo at the last Women's Tattoo Forum Art Show. Jill passed a few days after the opening. This image along with an article and other images from the show are featured in Tattoos for Women Magazine #94. Pick up a copy in your local news stand or from SkinArt.com.

Nerd Huddle.

How silly is this?

Abandoned Dairy Farm

Yesterday, my dear friend had a birthday.
She wanted to wander an abandoned dairy farm.
It was way cool. Check out the photos.


I brought the dogs. Zappo was catching wind in the back.


Checking out an old silo.


I cannot decided which one I like more.




This is my favorite photo from the whole day.


We saw a small gardener snake.

Updating my portfolio

I don't do much stock photography, but I enjoy playing around with it.
I decided to take all the boobs out of my ModelMayhem portfolio, despite the fact that it seems people only care about sexy images on that site. I just don't take that place in the internet very seriously anymore, so I figured I may as well show off some images I think are just plain neat.
Here's one of them.




What do you think?

Wrinkled Anger.

I love the texture in Reed's face.

Smoking Suit

Here is a Seattle musician, Patrick Dodd posing for me back in the day. This was one of my first paying photography gigs. I love looking back and checking out the older stuff.

Google Ads can suck it.

I apologize on behalf of Google Ads for posting advertisements for tattoo machine kits. I saw one here and it made me want to stab out my eyes. I have no control over what they post.

Elora

I like this because it's weird.

Blueberries and Dogs

One day, while in sleepy Long Beach, Washington, I picked organic blueberries with my Pisces soul sister, Laurel. This statue was shining at me in front of the U-pick parking.


This hen was a total camera ham. She lives out on some beautiful land my friend Jean's mom owns.


I look my dogs out there to play with other dogs on this amazing spot of undeveloped coastal marshland.


We saw some oyster hollocaust.


And in front of Laurel's house in Seattle I saw this fresh one laying on the pavement.

Rooftop Soiree

Near Long Beach, Washington, I found a dog on a roof, hollering at the marshland before him

This is where I was born.

When I was born, the year Thriller was number one, I lived here with my sisters, brother, mother and father.

Cicada Tattoo

I went to visit Cicada Tattoo in Seattle a while back.
Many photos were generated. Here's one of 'em.
Featured here are the tattoo artists of Cicada, from LtoR, Chani Murat, Will Bodnar, Miah, an Jason Drager.

Anyone know what kind of plant this is?

About halfway up to the top of the tallest peak in Texas, this amazing wonder grows. I am sure it grows in other places, too, but that is where I took this photograph...in the Guadalupe Mountain Range in the Guadalupe National Park.

45's

For those of you special friends who attended the Lilac City Tattoo Expo 2009: I have pictures for you!

OB/A&I did a 20 page feature on the show in Tattoo Revue Magazine #145. http://www.SkinArt.com

There were so many performers, friends, artists, and enthusiasts that got in my booth. All of which I had the delight of photographing. I edited almost 1,000 images! I am so proud of how these pictures turned out. I would be happy to mail you a CD of images, but to cover my cost and time, I ask for a $20 donation. I take PayPal, check, and money order. Your donation means a lot to me as I am a freelance photographer. All I really want is to get these fabulous images to each and every one of you!

It's poop.

Hair Ninja

After much painting, Reed had cracked his fingers.

Alligator Teeth

Featured here is Zappo. He was sleeping in bed, as if he were human, when I stumbled upon him. This is his "good morning" alligator-teeth yawn.

Introductions.

Hello there,

I realized that I had so many social networking pages LIVE! on the interwebs that I started operating through this mechanized routine of uploading, tagging, categorizing, labeling, titling, crediting and promoting images. This is no way to treat my most beloved craft. So, I started this blog in order to be able to share my photographs with you in a way where each may be treated on an individual basis.
