- Held by Hooks, and Each Otherby JonathonFacilitators and practitioners — the very people who bring so many suspensions to life — often pour their energy into others, quietly setting aside their own opportunities.

- Suspended, Not Silencedby JonathonThere’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension.

For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced

- What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soulby JonathonFirst suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal.

I’ve had a… Read more: What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul
- Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetryby JonathonOne of the most powerful things about being at a convention like OSC is the sheer concentration of experience, creativity, and capability in one place.

I love the tattoo, but I’m really curious to see how it will look in a few years.

It’s so little! I think he’s going to wish he got it bigger…

Is this the guy who is famous for doing the art minature tattoos? (the tattoo artist) I think it’s a cool idea, but I’d honesty love to see what this guy can do with larger work. For example, a back piece of this painting would look much better IMHumbleO. Not to say the minature isn’t nice, just wonder why the artist only does minatures.

magic ink work, but I always get a little red flag when I see artists work copied for tattoos. I have my reservations about the morality of the subject matter, even though the work is lovely.
