Matchbook miniatures available...

I'm not the best at keeping up consistent correspondence, so for all of you who have asked about available matchbook miniature drawings…Here's a chance.

My dual matchbook portrait, "Great Minds" , is available for purchase.

The piece features a portrait of Einstein, and 'Back to the Future's Doc Emmet Brown, framed side by side, and displayed mounted upon a  piece of antique , marbleized endpaper.

Politically Correctum

This is what political correctness will get you.

Do you want to live in a world where keeping the coons from digging under the fence, means being scoffed at when you ask the orange-shirts for "chicken wire"????

So Here's the scoop. (regarding tattoo)

I don't want to use the word 'Retired',
but it sorta fits. 
I have taken an indefinite hiatus from tattooing. It has taken three months away from the tattoo chair for the debilitating pain in my shoulder to subside enough for me to sleep through the night.
I have been focusing heavily on my Fine Art 
( www.jasondaquino.com ) , and on my new company Haughtee . 

If you want to support me,

Anyone who has ongoing work with me, 

can pick up their reference folder at the shop.

This will help with transitioning to another artist.

Also, if you would like a recommendation of another artist,

please contact me here...

Thanks -Jason
