So like lots of you must know by now, I am one of the 10 contestants on "Inkmaster" a new Spike TV show, it is the first Tattoo competition TV show ever made. So they have begun the launch of the show in Inked magazine, that you can find right now in the stores, and now they are beginning to advertise a bit all over the place, they just put this video of myself on spike.com let me know what you think! it announces the brutal battle that is about to unfold before your eyes..I am both excited and pretty much shit scared of what is about to happen as I have no editing power and didnt see any of the episodes so I will be watching those with as much surprise as you all will. Whatever happens be kind guys, all the contestants are experienced talented tattooists that basically went thru some hardcore sometime hellish times to deliver to you this "piece of entertainment"and they all are AMAZING...we also had some really good time!Thank God!:) I hope you will enjoy!

So this month of november I was happy to be able to support different charity event, a marathon in Boca Raton for breasts cancer, and the famous Movember that supports men's health by growing mustaches during the whole month of november. You can check them out at: us.movember.com/ Good luck to all of them growing their Suave Mustaches!..I personnaly enjoy a fine mustache, you can probably see that in some of my paintings, my favorite one is probably the Clark Gable one, but I can not say that I am indiferrent to a classic handlebar stache ...what is your favorite mustache?
