1. Roy's Tattoo Slide Show

This slide show is of my personal Tattoo Collection, the full front panel & the full back was done by world famous Debbie Lenz this piece Has two pieces of flash at the top & the rest is all custom, I sat for 22 hours over 7 sittings

Here you can see world famous Debbie Lenz putting in the color inks on my full back tattoo

In the first sitting she inked the entire outline & half the shading

In the second sitting Debbie finished the shading & started to apply the color inks on the side that had been all shaded in the first sitting. This way she could work the side that had two weeks to begin to heal

With the shading on the left side having two weeks to heal she can now start to color in that side while the right side has another week to heal some before the final touch up down the middle to finish the full piece.

Once the bulk of all the color has been put in Debbie will then do all the small areas down the middle that she so carefully stayed away from during the early stages of healing and she can do any needed touch ups

Seven months after healing I entered my first Tattoo Expo competition in Pittsburgh,Pa. Oct. 2000, though I did not win I did make it into the April 2001 issue of Tattoo Magazine & I took 2 ndplace full back in Liberty, Oh. 2 months Later

This picture was taken June 1, 2008

This picture was taken while I was on stage at the 2000 Meeting of the Marked Tattoo Expo in Pittsburgh, Pa. Though I did not win a prize I did get into Tattoo Magazine April 2001 Issue

This chest piece is made up of both flash and custom design total time of 14 hours in two sittings the longest sitting was 10 hours which I will never do again nor do I suggest anyone sit for that long.

This part of my full front panel is flash

The full front panel is set in the Native American Theme

Both my wife & I have a heritage in N.A. Though we could not verify which nation either of us belong

This piece is also Flash

For those that may not understand flash is art that can be found in any artist's studio around the world as long as they have purchased the flash

I was not able to locate the original pictures of the finished full front panel so I had to take new picture this week and the quality of the shots are not that good so I do apologize for that

Another shot of my full front panel though the picture quality is not very good, I guess I need to buy a digital camera since the old 35mm seems to failing me of late.

I had an original shot of thetotempole in a real nice close up but again I was not able to find those pictures.

This is my first Tattoo at age 17 back in 1969 which after fading was covered in2003 with the piece to the right

This piece is also Flash

To date this is the only part of my collection that can be found on my legs

Located on the outside of my right calf

I got this Goofy Tattoo After my wife started to nickname me Goofy.
