EYE CANDY for the LADIES





A LITTLE SIDE SHOW

The other day I had the privilege of tattooing a local Side Show performer Arlowe Price. Below is a picture of the tattoo I did. On a side note have you ever seen him perform? Everything from balloon animals threw his nose - screw gun up his nose, stapling of money to his body and a lot of old school Side Show tricks. Definitely an act to catch or book him for a show. You can find Arlowe here ARLOWE PRICE - SIDE SHOW PERFORMER for booking.

Spider Man Tattoo Flash



Ned Kelly

I am tattooing a piece on Ned Kelly this week on a customer. So this led me to do a little research on Ned Kelly. I found it interesting you may too. Below is the piece I am tattooing. Look for photos to come.

 Edward "Ned" Kelly (June 1854 or 1855 – 11 November 1880) was an Irish Australian bushranger. He is considered by some to be merely a cold-blooded killer, while others consider him to be a folk hero and symbol of Irish Australian resistance against the Anglo-Australian ruling class
Kelly was born in Victoria to an Irish convict father, and as a young man he clashed with the Victoria Police. Following an incident at his home in 1878, police parties searched for him in the bush. After he killed three policemen, the colony proclaimed Kelly and his gang wanted outlaws.
A final violent confrontation with police took place at Glenrowan on 28 June 1880. Kelly, dressed in home-made plate metal armour and a helmet, was captured and sent to jail. He was convicted of three counts of wilful murder and hanged at Old Melbourne Gaol in November 1880. His daring and notoriety made him an iconic figure in Australian history, folklore, literature, art and film.
In August 2011, anthropologists announced that a skeleton found in a mass grave in Pentridge Prison had been confirmed as Kelly's. His skull, however, remains missing.
