A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Where have all the flowers gone?

I thought the perfect way to chase away the winter blues and remind myself (and you) that Spring is around the corner would be with a series of flower tattoos. Who knows, maybe this year will be the year I finally get that flower tattoo I’ve wanted for roughly 15 years.

    how do you get in touch with Danny at classic tattoo. every website I found is in Chinese? They’re in grass valley ca. no one answers the phone.

    A little help would be wonderful, grass valley is a long drive, I would rather find website, a working number. I know he is still in business as far as 6+months ago.

    And why would classic tattoo not have a website… very odd,,,,

    Thanks for the help if you can….
