What I’m doing NOW!
Updated January 16th 2025 from my home in Tucson AZ
Work
I’ll be raising my tattoo rates this year on February 16th. A small increase of $50.
I’m doing some PR and Marketing consulting for a few friends businesses, I love this stuff. I’m only charging based off of revenue generated, so its no skin off anyones nose but mine.
email me at artandsolmedia@gmail.com if you want to chat about some marketing.
Tattoos
Back to work and loving it. Idle hands are the devils playground. Raising my rates next month.
Book a consultation with me now to lock in my current rates for the next year.
I’m also taking some time to meet new potential apprentices as Justin is moving up.

Health
Was invited to do the Grand Canyon backpacking trip again. Theres something terrifying and inspiring about that place.
Reading
Reading the NOFX autobiography – The hepatitis bathtub and other stories.
They’ve been my favorite band since I was 13. I’m old.
Family
Its my birthday this week. Looking forward to drinking a good beer with a good cigar and being around all the people I like.
Quotes I’ve been pondering
As we come into 2025 I’ve been contemplating some quotes a lot. Heres my favorites.
“Greatness is in the agency of others” Scott Galloway
This reminds me that I am only capable of so much. That I must surround myself with great people if something great is to be created. I have a few really great people in my corner and I’m looking to add to that this year. I plan to meet with new potential tattoo apprentices as well as utilize virtual assistants in 2025.
“What you are missing in life, will come to you when you give it” Unknown
Feeling lonely, befriend someone lonely.
Focus on giving to others whether time, kindness, support etc.
It will find you when you are giving it. Its making me look at whats missing in my life right now and how I can help others with that same thing.
