Walk about



Extensive travels and works-
experiencing the constant change
in different places and recognizing the growth
that happens when you build
walk in the direction of your heart.

the narrow path lays waiting to unravel
before you.

A new chapter


I just came back from a trip up north.
Back to that Seattle state of mind.
Trodden steady- had plenty of long walks
and time to reflect on the new season at hand.
Thank full for the experience and the
connections I have made in Washington.

My next return trip to Seattle will be Feb.
See you then...

back piece in its final form


Please respect the art and person that these marks belong to. There is a lot of respect lacking in the approach of tattooing now in these propagated times. Be inspired be moved but please do not replicate nor imitate the styles- this is a family based practice. If you do not work or study with our tribes- then please do not emulate our story.

RESPECT

this a culture with lineages involved

Gyre n Aloeye Project


Super talented homie Gyre one who I been doing music with since way back. Coming full circle with him on some projects. Slowly with patience getting this life long process of creating music. Very very excited about what we been documenting and capturing. Mostly live acoustic takes- more raw captures than super mastered productions. Just purely in the moment.
Building on putting an album out before the new years-

Creating time to work on projects other than tattooing. It feels good to expand and evolve back and forth. After all, its all One AIL.
