Read on Allen’s blog that Canvas Los Angeles, the boutique and gallery of the tattooer arts, was robbed on December 12th. Thankfully, none of the gallery’s staff were injured, but sadly, two pieces of artwork were stolen. The two pieces stolen were by Alex Garcia and Guy Aitchison.
This was a truly despicable act. It’s a violation, pure and simple, without any justification whatsoever, and it’s an insult to both the art and tattoo communities. Theft of any sort is inexcusable, but when you steal work from an artist, you steal the thing they produce, and you rob them of their livelihood.
What we want more than anything else is simply for these pieces to be returned. If those responsible for this theft bring the paintings back, or if they are otherwise returned unharmed, Canvas LA will not press charges. All we want is for the pieces to be returned to the gallery — this is really just a matter of supporting our community, plain and simple.
The gallery will be offering a $1000 cash reward for the return of each piece, revealed Guy’s newsletter.
“Minty Fresh Death” is oil on masonite while “AutoMech #2″ is acrylic on canvas. Both paintings are approximately 8×10 and were framed at the time they were stolen. Please keep an eye out on eBay and anywhere else you may see art for sale or displayed, and report anything you see to info@canvasla.com. Thank you all for your help and support.
When we say ‘Kindergarten’ – rhymes, cute playground, scribble drawings with butterflies, ladybirds, flower, cloud, stars, and many other naughty things strike our mind.
When I saw this tattoo by Sonja of Amazon Tattoo the first word which knocked my mind was “Kindergarten”, so I named it the“Kindergarten Tattoo”.
With a hard work of consecutive five hours Lokesh Verma of Devilz Tattooz inked Heath Ledger as the Joker in The Dark Knight. The tattoo came as a tribute to Ledger.
Temporary tattoos are best option for those who wish to flaunt their skin with a tattoo but do not wish its permanence.
Permanence is one strong reason which repels and attracts one to get tattooed.
Sharpie tattoos by Todditron are another best way to flaunt your skin in black extraordinary tattoo design. The Sharpie tattoos are designs made with broad-narrow lines drawn on the skin. These sharpie tattoos can also be helpful to some of you who are in search of a tattoo design which is totally unusual.
You might have come across many funny tattoo designs which would have surely made you laugh at the mind of the tattoo wearer and amazed at creation of the artist.
Same way I was amazed at the creation of this cute donkey byPepa Heller of Bohemian Tattoo Arts, and wonder what would have been the inspiration behind the tattoo?
Anyways, it did bring a smile to my face. Hope the same for you.
For everyone each tattoo has its own meaning. Tattoos are special impressions which one etches on his body to mark an occasion or in memory of someone.
pepo e camihad submitted this back tattoo on flickr. We see black picture of four men, I guess… they are dancing. May the meaning is something else for the wearer.
Tattoos are to adorn your body and to adorn your tattoos – there are microdermals. Microdermals work like jewelry for your tattoos, whether jeweled or plain. They appear like a silver lining in the clouds.
As seen in the picture above, you’d surely be awestruck by enhanced beauty of the tattoo from a jeweled microdermal. This is done by Lucas of PiratePiercing.
This is a great idea to spice up your tattoo and cross your limits to try new body modifications.
Burn Black got this geek Apple Tattoo on her finger “for a laugh so when PC users give me grief I could flip them one off with a cute retro apple logo stuck on my finger. Helps if you live in a household that has fierce Mac Vs PC rivalry.”, she says.
