Ferank:


After the Utrecht tattoo show i spent a few days at Toots studio in Zeiss ,holland.great crew,good times.
then i hooked up with my old mate DJ D.N.A in Utrecht . I did a memorial piece on DNA,who's son died tragically
two years ago.it was a great session filled with magic.it was a huge honour for me to do this tattoo.

i then caught a plane from Amsterdam to Cork to be with my tattoo family at 'ORIGINAL SKIN'.I brought gifts for
everyone,everybody got something ,including the head-cold virus i caught on the plane! everyone caught it here.OOPS!!
Uncle Roy and his wife Donna were visiting for the first time.Roy is a great cockney geezer who builds custom XED LE HEAD
rotary machines and is another swastika enthusiast.
he recently made a machine for HORIYOSHI 3 which was hand delivered to the master in japan.HORIYOSHI 3 was delighted
with it and sent Roy thanks in the form of some original artwork and some beautiful pieces of decorated japanese paper.
Uncle Roy has used this paper to decorate the motors of his custom machines.they are absolutely breathtaking in their details
and craftmanship.myself ,Callan and Phil were all given a new machine each from Roy.mine has a tibetan 'HUM' symbol cut out of the frame
making it extra special to me.an amazing gift.thanks Uncle Roy.Across the weekend Roy was tattooed three times....

firstly Callan (irelands youngest tattooist)chose a jewish swastika ,which he did on Roy's leg.this is Callan's 9th tattoo
and it came out great.then Phil tattooed the back of Roy's thigh with tibetan flames and SAYAGATA.i blessed Roy's fingers with moving swastikas.
we all had a great day......then i tattooed Roy's wife Donna with a circle from the flower of life on her wrist.it looked lovely.
we were blessed with sunshine all weekend and i got sunburnt on March 1st !! what a result!!

im over here in Cork not only to tattoo but also to help with the organisation of 'irelands first traditional tattoo and culture show',which is happening in july.
there's a lot to organise.then i have to get organised for the 'NORTH LAKES TATTOO SHOW' next month in Carlisle.......

keeping busy is always good ....

viva la swastika
reclaim the innocence


peace

Ferank.
