What I’m doing NOW!
Updated January 24th 2025 from Art and Sol Tattoo in Tucson AZ
Work
I’ll be raising my tattoo rates this year on February 16th. A small increase of $50.
I’m doing some PR and Marketing consulting for a few friends businesses, I love this stuff. I’m only charging based off of revenue generated, so its no skin off anyones nose but mine.
email me at artandsolmedia@gmail.com if you want to chat about some marketing.
Tattoos
More big black and grey realistic tattoos coming your way. I’m kinda behind on posting. I’ve been off social media since October and forgot that you would like to see my pics.
I’ll be better I promise.
Book a consultation with me now to lock in my current rates for the next year.
I’m also taking some time to meet new potential apprentices as Justin is moving up.
email me at artandsoltattoo@gmail.com if you are interested in an tattoo apprenticeship.
Health
Grand Canyon was scrapped due to water issues in the canyon.
But, we are planning a 4 day trip in the Chiricahuas!
I’m also starting dry January finally. Well, dryish January.
Reading
Reading the NOFX autobiography – The hepatitis bathtub and other stories.
They’ve been my favorite band since I was 13. I’m old.
Some wild stories so far. Farting on each others heads to get out of a DUI, peeing in kitchen drawers and ice trays… Its a must read if you like punk rock shenanigans like me.
Family
What a great weekend with my friends and family. I really feel incredible. My sister came down from the PHX area and brought my brand new niece. Holy moly I forgot how tiny little bebes can be.
I got to play guitar with my nephew and niece and make up silly songs! I was in heaven.
My daughter and I also did our personality tests again… WHOA. I feel like we get each other so much better now.
Im a debater and shes a mediator. You should take the test and tell me what you are.
Quotes I’ve been pondering
As we come into 2025 I’ve been contemplating some quotes a lot. Heres my favorites.
“Greatness is in the agency of others” Scott Galloway
This reminds me that I am only capable of so much. That I must surround myself with great people if something great is to be created. I have a few really great people in my corner and I’m looking to add to that this year. I plan to meet with new potential tattoo apprentices as well as utilize virtual assistants in 2025.
“What you are missing in life, will come to you when you give it” Unknown
Feeling lonely, befriend someone lonely.
Focus on giving to others whether time, kindness, support etc.
It will find you when you are giving it. Its making me look at whats missing in my life right now and how I can help others with that same thing.
