Howdy-Do, Faithful Followers:
Got a few things going on over here: I’ll be away a whole bunch during the next few weeks. April 13th-16th and then again April 21st-May 8th. Mostly for work, but I’ve thrown some playtime in, as well. If you follow me on Instagram (@the_milkmaid and @twelve28tattoo), you’ll be stuck seeing pictures of my adventures…I’m sure it will mostly be foreign foods and various shots of the ground while I wear a silly pair of Vans. SO EXCITING, I know.
I am still unable to take new clients/projects as I am finishing up the larger pieces that are in progress. If you would like to be put on my waiting list, please email me with your information and a subject heading of “Joy’s Waiting List” (pretty obvious).
As for everyone else at the shop….
Just to remind you all, Jess Versus has moved to Richmond, VA. She now works at 212 Tattoo, so if you need to get your Versus-Fix, contact her down there!
Part of my travels will be in conjunction with Dorothy Lyczek; we are going to the Nepal Tattoo Convention and then off to South China Sea Collective in Hong Kong. (Cannot explain how excited I am about all of this!!) Dorothy is lingering in Asia longer than I and she will return to The States May 25th.
Andrew Ferko’s last day here is April 18th and then the 19th Vinny Ramone comes back for a few weeks to do a little guest spot action. Chris Wednesday is now working full-time. He is available for walk-ins and appointments. Gianna Galli will be starting full-time (woo-hoo!) on May 15th. Please contact her directly to set up consultations/appointments.
As of now, Scarlet Sinclair has no travel plans and is here making beautiful tattoos that have the approval of all kinds of faeries while Roxie Rotten remains manning the fort (read as: is stuck here) being the responsible one while I go off and play in exotic lands. #lifeishard #iloveroxie
If you have any questions regarding schedules, etc. please don’t hesitate to give the shop a call or shoot us an email!!
Below are a few pieces I’ve worked on the last few weeks. Enjoy!
