TINY

small art is an exercise in productivity.
y'know?
it's small, but that doesn't mean it's easy, man.
all the principles of making something good apply,
just in less space.
it does happen faster, and the creation is not as arduous as something big....
but,
i only have small increments of empty space during the day,
and i don't wanna waste 'em,
but i also don't want to leave things incomplete-
so it's small art in the minutes i'm not tattooing.
yeah.
here's another 'nother one:

SKULLLLLLLLLLS!
i figured i'd give you a different angle this time,
so you can see just what's going on here-
this one is very small, and also, pretty cool.
a capricorn ghost skull for all my goatfish out there in the world.
yeah!
huh?
oh, okay:

here's the regular view, for regular viewing.
i'll be too busy to get much done today,
but that's a good thing.
we've got a snow day coming tomorrow,
with an undisclosed number of impending inches.
that means i'll be busy-busy with pick'em-up truckers all day long tomorrow,
for sure.
so, there may be a pause in the creation for a minute,
but NOT for long.
there's still a whole bunch of these circles to use up,
before i move back to rectangular frames.
MORE art, all the time, is all i ever want to happen around here.
the expert environment at AMPERSAND TATTOO makes me feel creative.
...and motivated.
...and productive.
...and psyched to keep it up.
it's all really happening over here-
expanding circles echoing over and over in different colors;
never quiet, never soft.....
