Today was the kickoff of the 2nd annual Portland Tattoo Expo. I only have a couple tattoos so far but there is plenty of room for more so I thought this might be a good opportunity to check out some other artists. My first two were done by Joanne Slorach who works out of Atomic Art and while I will certainly return to her in the future she is in such high demand that her next available appointments are almost a year away. In the meantime I have some other ideas while there were some talented artists in attendance there were many whose work was unappealing, sloppy or generic. Nevertheless, it was fun for people watching...
I find it interesting that tattoo are not unlike trees, with the coming of fall long trousers return, jackets are donned and the colorful tattoos of summer disappear only to re-emerge in the spring.
