Tattooed Tiler from NYC-Ceramics

For the last 2 years Karl has debated and thrown ideas round for his next tattoo, not an easy task when choosing a design for a sleeve! Following several drunk evenings with Karl and Fi (my sister-in-law!), we had consumed several bottles of Barefoot Rose and it came to me that I should surprise Karl with a 4hr stint at Sacred Art, Chorlton.

Following a consultation and still undecided, Karl had but the tattoo on the back burner till the 'ink pimp' struck again....that's me if your wondering :)

For my brother's birthday I decided to book him in with Sandy Green and get this talked about sleeve started....and today was the day in question. Check out the design that blew my brother's mind as he had no idea what to expect. With just the outline done, this is gonna be a mammoth job, and one he won't forget. I will keep you up dated with new photo's over the next few months and watch out for possible Conventions where this arm continues!!!!

....and for those wondering about the blog title? NYC-Ceramics is my brother's business and if your considering a walk in shower and a bathroom overhaul then check out his website - AWESOME!!
