Tattoo "Balance" Sleeve

This was my last appointment in New York... It was a rainy day... We rolled a few blunts up and let the art flow....he wanted balance... He already had his lower arm & chest done by Queen's tattoo artist, Made Rich.... Rich reminds me of a young version of myself so I was easy to flow off the pieces he already had on him... It was an Allday session....this client was super cool and laid-back... Good energy makes it earlier to work Allday... I'm thankful

"Koi Fish" Half sleeve tattoo

Step: One... Draw directly on the skin with the markers... Follow the shape of the arm.. Let the curves guide you.. Do not over think art... Use your natural born art instinct


I love doing Japanese inspired body art...since I'm not Japanese I have to add my own twist to it so it still looks like a MB original...I really enjoyed this one

Full Color Sleeve: 2nd Session

This is the 2nd session to this sleeve...full color...just following the nature flow of her arm...this movement of women getting sleeves is growing daily... I hope it inspires even more people to step out the box and cover their skin with art... Expression is freedom

The day after....

This is how the bird sleeve looks the day after...he has swelling in his wrist but the tattoo is looking good... I'm about to start the second session now after this food.... He has old work (I didn't do) on his upper arm... I can't cover it but I can add around it to take away from the old stuff...I will post those pics tonight
