For what it's worth... I will be leaving the area permanently in Spring of 2010, there is an opportunity at hand to do more with my Fine Art. Anyone who knows me knows how important my work is to me.
I am only taking appointments at Indelible Ink in Oneonta, through April 11th 2010 the latest.

GENERAL INFORMATION
How I work... I generally work by the hour but also can price work by the piece. I prefer to do work that is difficult for the average tattooist to render and find it more enjoyable as well.
When working by Appointment, I require a deposit that is Non-Refundable & Non-Transferable. Deposits go toward the overall final pricing of the work and if the work requires more than one session it is suggested to leave said deposit till the last session, otherwise every appointment will require another deposit.
For those who choose more Labor Intensive work and Regular Repeat Clientele will get a better Hourly Rate, but must be committed to getting the work done. An appointment once every year or two isn't applicable.
I also have a Day Rate which is quite cost effective for those looking to get allot done in one session. It is basically what ever I can accomplish in an 8 hour period on One Client, and I try to avoid unnecessary interruptions to optimize the time.
It is not always possible to work with stencils and a great deal of my work needs to be Free-Handed. Free-Handing just means that I draw it on before execution of work. I draw things very quickly. I prefer to have what ever source material is required at least 48 hours before any said appointment so I can work up whatever is necessary to be ready for the appointment.
And when last minute changes are made by the client so too are the prices given. So please, be sure of everything when making an appointment.
On Cover-ups Not exactly my favorite thing to do, but I do it very well, it will only be by the hour and pricing is determined by how much work is required. Covering up old or bad work isn't as easy as it seems, it requires allot more of my time and energy than fresh skin.
Over the years I have amassed quite a number of images either drawn up by myself or that I've found that would make great Body Art. I am serious about rendering these images in the skin and am always thinking outside of the box in terms of this medium.
My favorite things to do are Portraits, color or black & gray, recreating works of fine art in the skin, anything that is photo-realistic like pin-ups, animals, floral and such, and sick evil twisted & demonically themed.
