Tattoo Convention NYC 2008

The 11th annual Tattoo Convention came to the Roseland Ballroom in NYC for 3 days. The convention was filled with master tattoo artists, competitions, books and great original art work. I go to many body art events and conventions through out the year but this was one of the best and most inspiring. I managed to pick up a tattoo book from Japan that I fell in love with and almost had to donate a kidney to buy. Check out some of the great tattoos that were on display at the convention.

Body Art Workshop

Temptu Japan came to Temptu NYC to get some helpful tips in our airbrush makeup and body art workshop. Teaching the Japanese students was a pleasure even with the challenge of the language barrier. Darren Pitilli was a great model and here is the end result from the workshop.

Rock and Roll

I had all these great tattoos that I decided to use for a fun photo shoot with my friend Thomas Pitilli These are some of my most favorite tattoos I've done. Rock on Tom!
