Finally had the pleasure of starting my little cuz @morgan.ling21 sleeve ! And I am finally going to start posting some of the tattoos I’ve been doing lately since I’ve been Severely slacking on my social media lately! 😂😅🤙 done @elysium_studios. Also after I posted this I realized I forgot to put up the original Z brush design I worked off of so I will post that when I post the videos of this bad boy! :-)

Hey guys sorry I have been really absent lately. We have quite a few things going on. From working on the @churchofelysium , Moving and fixing up The new house, Trying to spend time with @atheusdicristina while working my ass off to fund all of these projects and the worst thing that I feared for a long time has Finally came to be reality. I recently found out my best friend which doesn’t even come close to describing the bond I have with him, has bone cancer in his jaw. We took him in to get surgery on it. They said that it could come back in a month to a year and the only other option was to bring him to Denver for chemo. At his age I did not want to put him through that nor did I want him To have to have that experience. I wanted him to go out on top. The cancer ended up coming back way faster than I had anticipated and Was forced to make a decision. Selfishly I wanted to keep him around for ever but saw his quality-of-life going down extremely Quickly, Since the cancer was growing so Rapidly and I could see a noticeable change in his personality due to the discomfort it was bringing on so we decided to put him down. Sikes went on one more amazing adventure. He chased wild bighorn sheep, played in some water with his friends/family , had a couch day with us, Then got a completely unplanned party. None of which I was very good at documenting because I wanted to be fully present in the moment and enjoy every last Bit of time we had together. Yesterday we took him in and had him put down. we were there with him holding him all the way to the point his body went limp and whatever indescribably beautiful energy that animated his body left. I am glad I get to say that he was happy, loved and comfortable all the way to the end. He lived an extremely full life filled with love, interactions, and adventure. from the first time I looked at him behind those bars at the Humane Society one week away from being put down all those years ago I would have never of guessed how special And impactful he would be to my life. I feel so blessed that I was able to share some of the limited time I have here with some thing so special. He brought happiness, cuddles, love to

Here is some pics of my boy @jimmy_lewin back along with a hilarious video we made at @gastonshutters ( @fkirons ) house around the time The foam reveals were popular, so we decided to up the bar a bit 😂😂. of course with the help of these stunning ladies @michelle_lewin @pmubylulu @nikalazutina 😁🤙.

Happy late 30th birthday @ajbrodersen3! Sorry I am a few days late but after going out I needed some recovery days lol must be that old age catching up 😅😂. Thanks for being my partner in crime for the last 16 years bro! Here’s to hopefully 16 more, if we live that long 😅🤙. Had to post this one because I don’t think I’ll be able to show @atheusdicristina until he’s 25 at least. I don’t need to be giving him any more horrible ideas!

Thanks for letting us share our story with you man . Always love the conversation and I am stoked to check out your new book powershift !!!

Tribute piece of Plato- Who founded the first institution of higher learning in the western world!. Not sure if the statue reference I used was originally of him or not tho lol. I am always stoked whenever I get the opportunity to shine some light on any human who has made a big contribution for the betterment of our species! They definitely deserve more recognition than they tend to get. Done at @elysium_studios
