Man, I love Portland.
Especially in the Spring.
I'm pretty sure if we didn't have a house in Minneapolis,
it'd be a difficult battle not to try and move there asap.
I worked 4 busy days at Scapegoat Tattoo,
and spent the rest of my time eating.
You can get vegan everything in Portland,
and I did.
It's also such a tattoo town.
So many people have nice work on them,
it's pretty crazy.
After the skull and tree stump tattoo I previously posted,
I tattooed this rocking chair portrait on Jaxun.
It was fun getting a chance to hang out with him again,
even if he did put my linework to the test with this request.
Craig flew up from San Diego to get two days worth of tattoo time in;
we did a massive arm tattoo first,
then finished his chest piece the second day.
I don't know how he did it.
The first one was based off a Twilight Zone episode,
"Time Enough at Last".
I messed up the settings on Meryl's camera and only got bad photos,
but if you click on it to make it bigger, you can get the idea.
Craig is not only a badass,
he is also one of the funniest dudes I've ever met.
(which can make even 11 hours of tattooing go by pretty quick)
A big thank you to Brian Wilson and Scapegoat Tattoo for having me.
I was spoiled, big time.
And I hope to be back sooner than later.
