some of my work in israel
I started tattooing in Tel aviv in 1998 I worked 6 days a week and did many lower back and butterflies , not that anything wrong with that .
In between I had some good friends that let me cover a little more skin , and gave me the freedom with the drawings as well .
I do love doing black and gray tattoos and I do love doing only black tattoos .
Please don`t ask me to do it , I just too dedicated to my studying now that I cant put my mind on anything else at the moment .
I go back to Israel once a year , and I am tattooing wile i`m there , I do get booked really quick and by the same costumers , that I do love to tattoo .
They are all old friends that our friendship even became stronger throw the tattooing .
one of them is idan gil http://www.idangil.com/ , that was so kind to shoot some photos of some of the work i did in the past 13 years before i left and during my visits
All done freehand at an apartment in Tel aviv , between 5 to 8 Hr sessions , tough guys .
