Jaded Ink launches - Tatts abound
The man who has done most of my ink is called Jade. Jade is a genius and a gem of a gent. His work is impeccable and his attention to detail is fantastic. So how could I possibly not go to the launch of his new Tattoo Parlour called Jaded Ink.Here's Jade doing my most recent piece that he now needs to complete (3/4 sleeve):And here's the piece:I was fortuitously invited by one Don Packett who MC'd the event.Don is a brilliant MC. He is, by nature, a funny guy but knows when an event is not about him and his talents and humour. Last night's event was about Jade and Don made sure to focus events as much as possible on what was at hand, or in this case leg, thigh, full sleeve, half sleeve, bionic arm, ankle or any other body part you could imagine with ink on it.Here are some videos from the Tattoo Fashion Show that Jaded in put on:After this event the most incredible thing that I realised is that the culture of tattoo bonds people. It brings like-minded individuals together no matter how far removed from one another they are.Jaded Ink will definitely be doing my sleeve in the very near future.
