Awards & Acclaim and even some contests and magazines with stuff about me.

Awards & Acclaim.
There is enough information here to build a rapport and confidence with you, so I haven't pursued any contests or other "Bragging" rights lately. Redesigning this website in 2008/2009 is enough work for me. I am lucky to be sure. I enjoy the Northwest and as you can see from me walking around town I work hard and play hard.

Welcome to my "Bragging" page.
As of now I still do not travel to various Tattoo Conventions.
I am quite busy and really like the comfort of my shop,
so I do not compete for trophies or plaques.
Awards and recognition can be good.
Here is some recognition for my paintings and tattooing.
Listed from most recent to least recent.

Come to the shop to purchase any of the 3 beginning issues
of this soon to be classic for info in the Northwest Fight Scene.
