Our good friend David Newman from Supreme Being flew over for a bit sit down, and we really went to town on his arm. David and I had been going back forth over ideas for his sleeve for a few weeks, and after a fitful night of dreaming he came up with this idea. I was really stoked to be able to translate this dream image over into a tattoo. David sat for an amazing 7 1/2 hours of pretty solid tattooing. We were both grinning like Cheshire cats through the whole thing.

A few weekends ago Incognito was at the Ink and Iron tattoo Expo in Long Beach. I am always on the lookout for cool old tattoos on the people walking the crowd, when you spend 10-12 hours a day in the booth you get pretty bored. I was scoping out the sweaty masses when this gentleman walked by and I immediately knew it was a Cliff Raven tattoo. I snatched up my camera and got a few shots of the really cool tiger and bamboo and water flowers and butterfly on his other arm. He said the work was done between 1982-1986. The tattoos have seen many months of summer sun since then but they still look killer… thanks Cliff..
In photo #2 Tim Forbus looks longingly into the future .
Cheers
