August 20th

Back at it, were staying busy.  A little slow today, but the school year is about to start so we are gearing up for it!  My good friend Christine Starnes is coming up next week and will be here for two whole weeks working the roots festival with Gregg and I.  It should be a fun time!  Been cranking out some fun pieces and trying to make the best of my time away from work as well.  That's about it for now, here is a couple of tattoo's I have done this week.

How Long has it been?

   OK, so it must have been about 4-6 weeks since I updated this blog.  Build out was finished up the end of June and we officially got the doors open on the 30th (of June).  The first month has been incredible, thank you to every one who has been a player in this, from our family's to our contractors, new friends and clientele, bless you all!  I have not been doing steady updates because a) I am not efficient at typing, and b) we have actually been busy!

   I have been getting to do some rocking tattoo's and Gregg has been doing pretty good to.  I am getting nervous about Gregg going back to school in early Sept, just as the kids are coming back to school and it starts getting busy, I will be losing my other artist...It will be nice to start getting some more clientele built up, I just hope I can handle it by myself.  Back to the shop...we have the sandwich sign done and the shop looks great, especially at night when the lights come on!  Working on a HUGE wood cut for the side of the shop, this one is the biggest I have ever done, almost 5' tall and over 3' wide, it ought to do the trick though, we need to get more people in the door.  That is about it for now, trying to get some advertising out and spread the word.  Here are some new pics, enjoy, I have to draw for an appointment.

We are Open!!!

Finally, it was official on June 30th, at 4pm.  WOW, what a wild ride!  Thanks to everyone who has supported us through all of this, we love you all very much.  So with out further adieu....

Playing catch up

A lot has been going on, and combined with no internet I have not been posting.  So a little catch up, Gregg and I have been rocking and rolling.  We have everything painted and stained, minus the poly.  Framed the counter out friday and have been rolling at a break neck speed all week.  Water heater, sinks and the outlets should be installed early this week and we should hopefully have the city inspection done some time late this week, fingers crossed.  So with out further adieu, here are the pictures! They are posted in order starting from last Friday.
