New ink

I finally did something I'd been threatening to do for 4 years. Got another tattoo.

This one is in honor of my dad. It's a strip cropped from a woodcut print he did. All black, a band around my arm.

It's something I'd been shopping around to various artists in NC but never quite found someone who I had confidence could do it. This was especially important after getting my first one done by someone I am now convinced was doing his first one. Not good.

At Black Heart Tattoo in the mission, I found a guy named Mike Lucena.

His portfolio can be found here: Black Heart

It's peeled and still looks good. So a great deal of thanks to Mike. If you're ever in need of ink and in Brooklyn, he's moving, Mike's your man.
