Times are tough moneys tight and you still need art right? You still want tattoo's right? Well due the the current economic climate worldwide and on my block. I am willing to accept trades! Yes the barter system is in full effect at Newspeak. There is lots of stuff we need and even if we don't need it we may take it as fodder for more trades to come. So its not ghetto its classic! Before fake paper money and corrupt banking corporations there was the barter system and after the Zombie apocalypse it will return but right now its the lunch money apocalypse and I'm getting creative.

I did a bunch of tattoos yesterday it was a good time hangin with you folks! Heres one I actually managed to get a flic of. Oh and the sheet of flash I finished this morning. Cheers

Busy Black Friday! Thank you to all of those who got tattooed and picked up gift certificates today. It was a really fun day and reminds me why I am so thankful. Here is a painting I made last week. I have been wanting to work on this for awhile so I collected all the images over the last year of paintings and fun times to put it together. Its on hand pressed Mexican watercolor paper that is very rough. It was a good time. Cheers, Zez

Painted for the Ano De Los Patria. Hopefully it will get to the show.. Here it is.

Newspeak up

These are some photos I took of our new Upper Newspeak Studios entry hallway and my personal area. This is a very inspiring space we created for our clients, ourselves, our art work, art work of our friends and favorites. The result is a fun, private, professional studio that makes making tattoos that much more fun. Come by and have a cup of coffee and we can talk about that tattoo you need.. Cheers

A month in the mind

So I guess your supposed write some shit when I post photos. I have been really busy making art trying not to think about the dead homies and all the other braincrushers.
