Some Cowgirls I Dude

Empty handed cowgirl
2001
I think the outline I used for this one was by Al Miller. Below we have George Petty's original cowgirl holding a branding iron from a 1939 Old Gold ad.

Girls Getting Carried Away

A Rat Fink Frankenstein with his Bride on my old downstairs neighbor, Battalion of Saints singer, George Anthony. This tattoo was George's reward for catching the crackhead that broke into my apartment while I was at work.

What a Shrunken Head

A new take on the Deadbolt shrunken head for Harley's nephew.

Still in use 20 years later, who woulda guessed that one?
