The "Mom tattoo" is a classic staple in classic tattooing. I always love the sentiment and like the sweet and simple imagery that usually goes along with the traditional designs of the past. I will be doing walk ins tomorrow May 11th from 12-8 pm. I will only be making tattoos that show your mom how much you love her...OR...If you are a mother and would like to get a tattoo showing the love you have for your kids that can be done too. I'll be working from a selection of designs. Fair prices for good, clean work. I hope to see you tomorrow.

Sandy Hook Benefit at Hat City Tattoo

Joe Pepper, JR Tubbs (of True Til Death Tattoo Co. in Astebulah Ohio) and I will be at Chris Tevino's Hat City in Danbury, Ct. We will be working an event to show the people of Newtown and the community at Sandy Hook support. We will have hand painted flash designs to choose from. These original works of art will be auctioned off for the lucky winner to hang on their wall. The designs will be affordable and all proceeds will go directly to charity. Chris has chosen is My Sandy Hook Family Fund. I ask all of my friends and clients of Graceland Tattoo to come out and show some support. It's an easy drive and it will be a blast. The shop will be open and ready to tattoo at 10 am. I'm not sure when they will be calling it quits, but due to a family obligation I will be leaving at 4:30. Who cares...there's still Pepper, Tubbs and Hat City Chris!

Graceland Tattoo Christmas Party!

Not only will we be displaying art by the Graceland Family, but local artists as well. There will also be hand made ornaments up for grabs. All money from the sale of ornaments will go directly to the Grace Smith House to help victims of domestic violence. The ornaments are really rad. Something for everyone.
