Chris Dingwell @ Sanctuary Tattoo: SEMINAR CHANGED! Cory Kruger is joining me!

Sat, 04 Jul 2009 00:32:00 EST

HOWDY Y'ALL! We've changed the seminar for the Paradise gathering, and we plan to present it in Miami as well; Cory Kruger will be hoisting it with me, and it will be an hour longer (3 hours total). This also means we will be doing live painting demos, and it won't just be me babbling on and on about stuff n things... Here's the full scoop: ACRYLIC PAINTING FOR EVERYONE; A Two-Headed Approach Cory Kruger and Chris Dingwell each have over fifteen years of tattooing and painting experience. With an extensive art background and a graduate degree in Fine Arts, Chris Dingwell is a unique figure in the tattoo community, bringing his abstract art background into his work as a tattooer. For a better look at his work, you can find him at www.chrisdingwell.com. Cory comes from a more traditional tattoo background, working with Julie Moon, Guy Aitchison, Joe Capobianco and many others along the way. In addition, he has refined his painting techniques over many years; learning all he could from masters of tattooing and from far outside of tattooing, in order to create the amazing work that he does today. Check it out at www.krugertattoos.com. This seminar will present a pre-view of the forthcoming book about acrylic painting techniques that Chris Dingwell and Cory Kruger are co-writing. The book will be published later in the year by Guy Aitchison's Proton Press. This seminar is for anyone who is at all interested in painting, from first timers looking for a place to start to the seasoned veteran who is looking to expand in new directions. Cory and Chris each have a distinct and personal approach to painting. By combining their knowledge and experience, they will be able to give you a wide path to follow, with lots of possibilities to explore. Together, they will debunk the myths and discuss the advantages of acrylic paint and how it can work for you. They will discuss a wide variety of materials, techniques, and approaches to the medium that are available today; showing examples through slides and live demonstration. Covering everything from composition and color to layering, glazing, and working with mixed materials, they will discuss various approaches to painting and art making with a strong focus on experimentation and working WAY outside the box. They will be discussing ideas that can be applied to help improve any kind of art making, including your tattooing. Participants are encouraged to contribute their thoughts and questions to this lively discussion about the ins and outs of acrylic painting. This should be an entertaining as well as informative event for any artist, no matter how new or old. There will be special hand outs and cookies. Approximately 3 hours, $150 per person, unlimited seating. Go to the "PARADISE TATTOO GATHERING" Events page. Click on the Paypal button below to pay a $50 deposit guaranteeing your spot! See you there!!

nathan kostechko: what next?

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 12:32:00 EST

Hello Tattoo world!!!! So I am back in Los Angeles, but at the moment I am working alone, in a private space in the artist district of downtown LA. This spot is temporary.... I will be staying in LA for good though, soon moving to a new, fancy, final location where everyone can come find me. Not planning on moving out of the area. So local clients and people in So Cal, come get tattooed! My website is now the only place to get a hold of me. I deleted my myspace, so dont try and find me on that website. I no longer feel the need to have people see and know everything about my life(plus its just to hard to keep up with it and maintain it). I just enjoy tattooing a lot! So come get tattooed if you wanna get to know me. Also, the only convention that I have confirmed at the moment- Paradise Tattoo Gathering september 17th-20th After this show, I will not be attending many shows at all.... Maybe one or two a year, traveling is hard work man, i want to hang out and work at home. This is where im at my best. I will keep everyone posted on when the new spot is up and running. Thanks and enjoy your summer! ps. I finished my pint size paintimgs!!! be on the look out....
