Well, 2012 is in full swing and flying by already. So far this year, I have tattooed at some really awesome conventions, and managed to bring home some trophys for most realistic, best portraits, a couple of best of days and even a best of show, which I am very flattered and extremely grateful for. Along with kicking off the year with a pretty hectic convention schedule, things have been pretty busy here in Dallas, as I write this, I have just finished working on a really cool client that flew in from PA to Dallas to get a full black and gray sleeve started. I have a couple of other large scale pieces that I will be getting a start on this year, some cool throt pieces and some really fun portraits, in color and black and gray, just to name a few.

Outside of actually tattooing, I have been busy trying to find the perfect spot to open up my new studio, Rebel Muse Tattoo. There is a couple of spots that I have my eye on, so hopefully on my next update, I will have all the details and everything in motion to get it open as soon as possible. It will be a pretty private appointment only type tattoo studio that will focus on clients collecting their tattoo in a relaxed and artistic atmosphere.

My next stops on the convention schedule are Ink Masters in OC California, then over to the UK for the Liverpool convention, both of these will be great tattoo conventions that I am really looking forward to. I have also just confirmed that I will be doing Ink n Iron in Long Beach as well as TattooLaPalooza in Miami, which both take place in June.

Well, that's all for now folks, I hope to be back very soon with an update on the new studio, so keep a look out!
