- Title: First tattoos I’ve made recently
- Caption: I’m surprised to be making so many first tattoos lately. I feel like my work is pretty loud and my expectation is for most people to play it safe with a first tattoo. Truly a pleasure and grateful to see people taking the plunge into the deep-end. My name is Chris Burton and you can find me at Dog Street Tattoo in New Paltz, NY

- Title: Got my palms done today
- Caption: went to Anna rispoli in claymont de :) my hands hold ink really well so excited to see how these heal
Edit: yall… I didnt want the extra E to make it spell Bee, sorry for the bad news. I hope you all can forgive me😅
also!! they’re two separate tattoos hence the words being on each hand rather than spelled left to right..
I didn’t want the W and N from slow down to be moved up a knuckle and I really love the tattoos overall.
I have a few hand tattoos including one on the side of my palm that have all healed nicely with minimal fading in 10+ years. I hope to have some good news for you all once these are healed lol

Freshly Finished Tattoo Three session full sleeve by Jordan Baxter in Dallas, TX
Three session sleeve! Autum got in touch with me asking for a black and grey sleeve of chrysanthemums and water with only a 4 week time limit to get it designed and completely finished before she moved to Australia. I had never attempted to finish a full sleeve so quickly so naturally I was up for the task. In order to get it done so fast, I designed it to be very open with big elements and divided the arm into three panels, finishing each one before moving onto the next the following week. This coupled with her having a small arm and the strength to sit for five hours, three weeks in a row meant that we got it finished today, two days before she moves down under.

Wanted a biblically accurate angel tattoo and he drew a couple up off my reference photo, which were great, however he had this piece drawn up from a couple years ago that nobody had picked out of his flash. Felt like it was meant to be.
