August really was a rollercoaster of a month, and I want to take you along for the ride.
On the tattoo front, things have been buzzing with some incredible projects both started and completed. A beautiful rose design bloomed its way onto the skin of a happy client, and it’s just one of many exciting pieces we’ve brought to life this month.
In the art studio, I wrapped up a painting of Bristol City defender Rob Dickie — and it’s heading straight to the man himself very soon! But the brushes haven’t stopped there. A portrait of Liverpool legend John Barnes is in progress, and that piece will also be making its way into John’s hands before long.
Speaking of Rob Dickie, I’m thrilled to share that signed items are now available for pre-order. These are limited, so if you want to grab one, make sure you don’t miss out.
Of course, not everything was easy this month. I faced some personal setbacks after losing two close family members within just a couple of weeks. It naturally slowed me down, but sometimes life reminds us to pause and process before we can move forward again.
On a brighter note, the custom phone cases have been absolutely flying! Orders from both new and returning customers have been ringing through the studio, and plenty more are already on the way out as we speak. It’s been amazing to see so much love and support for them.
Framed prints are making their way out too, including a stunning 50x50cm piece of the legendary Notorious B.I.G. This was one of Jordan’s very first paintings of the music icon, now beautifully framed and hanging proudly in its new home — and it looks absolutely incredible!
All in all, August brought challenges, but also a lot of progress, creativity, and connection. Here’s to carrying that energy forward into September!
