Had a great day down at the Brighton Tattoo Convention today at Brighton Racecourse. First off all it was awesome to see my photos on display in the Art Show, which had a whole building of it's own at the event.
I even got my name on the posters..
Massive thanks to Woody and Lisa Bolton who organised the event and the Art Show. Lisa had some of her own work on show which was fantastic...
Sharing gallery space with me on the upstairs floor was the Sugar Project, which is an art event involving awe inspiring tattoo artists and artists from all over the country and hopefully the world! They have hand painting 50 skulls to be auctioned on ebay with all proceeds going to the urgent appeal to prevent the Woking Hospice from closing. The first auction will start on March 22nd 2010 and the project will run for 5 days, 10 skulls being auctioned hourly each day.
I ran into some of the guys from Volkszone at the show, including Cherry who had a rather unusual tattoo to add to her collection.
It was a little like walking though a hospital surgery in the artists halls, listening to the needle guns firing as skin was pierced and art created.
