I finally have a piece done by the amazing Carlos Torres. Sadly it is not a tattoo, but it fantastic. It is the artwork from his latest t-shirt.

A signed and numbered limited edition print, I have number 4 of only 17. Now to get it framed and up on the wall!! 🙂

Wow. He is so incredibly talented.

Yeah he is amazing, I hope to get work done by him. Awesome T-shirt 🙂

Very cool!

So very cool.. Now you have an in with him and when your emailing him to try to get an appt. just mention you own some of his art. every little edge helps.

Exactly! I would ask him what style of frame he would recommend for your print. Next you thank him when the frame style looks so awesome. now is when you ask if he would consider tattooing you.

This will give him the required lip service without actually getting tongue prints on his boots. (or other things)

I never thought of that. I just really wanted a piece of his art but that is an EXCELLENT idea. Thanks, you guys!

And then get him to tattoo me too 🙂

do the artist sell these pieces at conventions? CT is at the Amsterdam Convention this weekend, and won’t mind a few pieces(drawing) from him or some off the talent showing up there

Art is a big part of conventions. Anything from paintings to skate boards.
