Custom Missing Link Ink Tattoo Flash Sheets!!! I am selling these original flash sheets as well as limited runs of 10 prints per design (signed and numbered). Originals are made on heavy cardstock using a mix of india ink, tattoo ink, acrylic paint and sharpie marker.

Originals sell for $150/sheet. Prints are $30 each.

I riff on classic themes and inject my own designs as well as popular and obscure 20th century cartoon and advertising icons.

I have been collecting tats for years and gave it a whirl as a tattooer a few years back. Arthritis made it nearly impossible to devote time to pursuing tattooing as a career so the next best thing for me is to create my own flash sheets.

I also design custom one of a kind tattoo pain-free designs that you can take directly to your favorite ink slinger or simply hang on the wall to admire.

These designs can be purchased immediately by going to my Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/monkeytoast or you can contact me directly  to avoid all the fees and extra cost of Etsy.

This series of the 4 seasons was just polished and sent off to its new home.
These are acrylic/ink on found/reclaimed framed canvas board. The 4 seasons landscapes were originally painted by Stella Kemper in 1989. I think Stella would approve.

This piece was commissioned by Brenda Scallon. Ink and Acrylic on paper. You can hear Brenda's music at http://www.myspace.com/daughtersofjoyyeah/photos.

The Hookup triptych. These 3 modified thrift store pieces were found while living in the Bronx. I included images of the paintings as I found them.

Working for Peanuts triptych. These portraitrs were passed on to me bu my friend Nic. They were left behind by an old housemate of his. The 3 people were employees at a Trader Joe's, so the story goes. The peanuts were added just prior to a mojor peanut butter recall a few months back.

This new batch completed this summer/fall was all sourced from found paintings discarded on the side of the road, in the trash, garage sales and thrift stores. It's all hung and ready to go as part of the One Night Stand Gallery benefit show. I've included some of the images of the original paintings as I've found them in various garbage bins, thrift stores and garage sales.
