I’ve been working on two new #CartoonButt pieces this morning. The rain has been falling since the wee hours of the morning, I’ve finished the coffee, the smooth sounds of Amy Winehouse “Frank”, “Charles Mingus “The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady”, Duke Ellington & John Coltrane “Duke Ellington & John Coltrane” and Duke Ellington & Louis Armstrong “The Great Summit – The Master Tapes” have been filling the air of the home office since about 7:30 AM. Quite a productive day thus far as I’ve knocked out a digital portrait I’ve been wanting to do for a few weeks now.

Brandy Patterson, a wonderful tattoo artist I spoke of in this post is a beautiful young lady and one of the most talented tattoo artists I’ve had the pleasure of encountering and getting worked on by. She posted a cute photo on Instagram a couple of weeks ago and I asked if it was cool if I illustrated it.

She said yes and probably forgot all about it because I’ve dragged my feet for several weeks. I finally got to it today.

Thanks for the source, the inspiration and the ink, Brandy. Maybe see you soon?

Brandy is now at Now Or Never Gallery in Downtown Kingsport, TN – Give them a look over at their Facebook page.
