Its been a little while

We arent the best at updating this thing, oops.

So the remodel is all done. All 4 stations are finished and the shop is looking pretty good. The past week weve been pretty busy, no complaints on that end. We are going to be renewing our lease for another 3 years and are waiting on the landlord to get a final draft done so we can get everything signed. We are pretty excited about that. Once the lease is signed, we will be getting a channel letter sign finally. We put a banner up there so people can see it drving by until we get the permenant one.

The landlord also is allowing us to have a one year anniversary party in July. Itll be an all weekend thing going from July 8th-10th. We will have flash sheets of cool stuff for pretty cheap. Once we have that done we'll start posting them. We will also be having a BBQ that Saturday, July 9th. So once all the details are figured out, we will let everyone know. Make sure you come by, check out the shop, get tattooed or just come hang out and say hi.

Once i sort through new pictures of tattoos and finsih doing taxes, ill post some new stuff the guys have done the past few weeks. Keep your eyes peeled.


ps. Pete and our buddy Jazz Wilton have started their own clothing company called, ZeroClick. Make sure to "like" them on facebook and go check their website for updates. http://zeroclickclothing.com/

Its been a while

We recently finished our remodel. We extended the middle station put a pony wall in the middle to turn it into 2. All 4 artists have their own station now. We will still be doing some minor touch ups and stuff (texturing/painting) but nothing big. If you havent come by and checked it out we suggest you stop by and do so.

Also we finally have local artists paintings in the shop and ready to be hung. We will put them up sometime this week and when we do, I will post all the info on each of the 3 artists and when we plan on having a small art showing to showcase their work.

I know ive also been saying this for a while, but i talked to Jeremy (a friend of mine whose been making our website) today and i will get a chance to look at it finally tomorrow. So it should be up soon (fingers crossed).

One last thing, the new merch has been ordered. We will be printing 2 different shirt designs and one crew neck. Both shirts will be limited to 30 a piece and the crew necks will be limited to 20. We should have all of it by the end of this month or early next. If you get a chance, go over and check out Overcast Design and Print. They are the guys who have been printing all of our shirts/sweatshirts/tanks and are awesome dudes!

2 New Artists? What?

Yesterday, Andrew Parker dropped off his portfolio for us to take a look at. Needless to say we were fairly impressed. He will be working with us part time for the rest of the month and moving to full time early next once we get the 4th station built. He will be working Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Yes thats right i said Sundays. We have always all enjoyed having one day off a week. But with the addition of Jamie and Andrew, we will now be open everyday. Both of them will be there on Sundays to take care of tattoos youd like to get. Pete, Alex and Sean will still be on their normal schedules taking Sundays off. We feel like we have a really strong selection of artists now and are ready to take on the eastside. Our motto has always been, you dont have to go to Seattle to get a good tattoo, we now feel even more comfortable saying that adding both Andrew and Jamie to our staff. Stop by sometime this month, welcome both of them to the shop and schedule an appointment with these dudes!

Also we will be printing merch early next month, i will post the designs as soon as they are done.

Sean has picked up a second job working as a auto window repair tech. His schedule has now changed to weekdays after 7 or all day Saturday. If you would like to schedule something with feel free to contact us and we will get you down. Due to the change in his schedule, we will be looking for another artist or two to fill the times that he wont be here. If you or someone you know is interested here is what we are looking for:

- AT LEAST 2 years prior experience in a shop

If you have these requirements, feel free to come in the shop with your portfolio and other art you have worked on and were more then happy to talk to you about employment.

When we bring another artist in we will extending the middle station into 2 stations. We don't know when this will be, but we will keep everyone updated, due to the fact that shop will be closed for a short period of time.
