Digger

As a declaration of love, Digger had his wife’s name written and tattooed here in Chinese for their first anniversary…one week later, they broke up, and are now divorced…So listen, when we tell you not to tattoo your partners name on you…or the curse will be yours too.

Digger is the power behind the toys company, Art Asylum and now also Dig Deep. You can see some of his toys under the paint section of this web site- where I have painted the master copies of his mini creations

Easily one of the most talented painters I have had the pleasure to work with and hang out with over the Disney construction period..Another Lamma resident for the time, Terada has since returned to Japan to re-create the Kowloon Walled City as a Game Centre……………DSCN0383

Perhaps better known for his good looks, fabulous girlfriend and his all night party tunes; Vinnie spent some time in Bluetongue this year for his contemporary tattoo.  Vinnie’s one of the night-rider crew, and quite recently found himself in the hospital for months recovering from his midnight-mountain bike crash; he says the first thing he asked when his friends discovered him all twisted up on the tracks…”Is my tattoo alright, man?”….DSCN0830 DSCN0916 640x480 DSCN0917 640x480 DSCN0918 640x480 DSCN0919 get well soon…

his original idea was to plaster his girlfriends name over himself, but with a bit of coaching from me and his girl, he knew better not to….DSCN1252

This is one of the sadder stories I have come to know whilst tattooing in HK. This tattoo was originally designed for Em’s fiance; however he passed on before it was finished.  Here Em has found the courage to finish it…DSCN0137

Jeff, one of the very talented painters from New York, I got to work with on the Hong Kong Disney Project. His obscure design on the hand, is actually the constellation “Gemini”DSCN0611 600x840
