So a lot has happened in my life since I made my last journal entry. I quit my job at Flying Colors Tattoo in Napa, CA and got a NEW apprenticeship! I am now apprenticing at Dream Masters' Custom Tattoos in downtown San Francisco! The INCREDIBLY talented and AMAZING Svetlyo is my new teacher! I am so fucking happy at this new place, I can not even describe it. Working in San Francisco is so amazing! I've only been working there a week and I've already met SO MANY amazing, inspiring, TALENTED people! I'm just surrounded by so much passion and talent and... It's just amazing. I am on cloud freaking 9 right now! I could not be more grateful for Svetlyo taking me as his apprentice! Although I do have a bit of a commute everyday... I drive from Napa to San Francisco (for people who don't know, it's about an hour and a half drive). But it is BEYOND worth it. I barely even notice the drive I'm so happy LOL! But yeah, great things are happening in my life right now!

I also have been working on a new painting for about 4 months now. It's ridiculous. I've been recording everything I do as well (time lapsed recording) and I have about 300GB of video footage so far It's fucking insane. I'm really close to finishing it and I will obviously post it on here (and will provide a link to the video of me painting) when it's finally finished. It's going to be like the videos I already have uploaded on my YouTube page: [link] except longer and better LMAO (IMO) And the painting is just a lot more... INSANE. I love the direction my artwork is going. LOVE IT! I can't wait to show everyone! I'm making progression! And I couldn't be happier!

Anyways. I just wanted to give a little update to anyone who actually cares. I know I haven't uploaded anything in awhile. But I have good reasons! I will have new stuff VERY SOON! PROMISE!

Thanks for reading!
