SINK SWIM

I’ve been talking with Finny for ages now and I finally got it together to post his knuckles. Here they are along with the stories behind them:

swim_sink
What would Finny do? SINK SWIM is his yin and yang. Has a devil side and and an angel side, and tattoos themed to match. Thus his swim is on his "good" side, comedy, his mom. SINK on his left for the bad, tragedy, father.
swim_sink_full
Fruits and veggies - his mom said he needed somethign to remind him to eat his fruits and veggies every day. He is going down the path of organic farming.
lobster
The Crawfish/Lobster. The only piece of Sailor Jerry flash on his body. Sailor Don, busted out actual Sailor Jerry Red and mixed it with everclear. Salt and pepper shakers adorn to add a little spice.

HOLD FAST – TRUE LOVE

Tonight I saw Thee Oh Sees destroy the Beerland patio. I had to stand on the patio fence in order to shoot pictures. Dangerous, dangerous! 

After the set I talked to Petey Damnit from the band and got these pictures of his knuckles. If you get a chance to catch this band live, don’t miss out.

Don’t miss ’em, you will thank me.

UPDATE: Here are my pictures from the show:

HALF DEAD

I met Jon Williams today at Flip Happy Crepes and he was kind enough to let me photograph his knuckles. He is a furniture maker by trade. His story is that his knuckles are a commemorative piece for his twin brother who passed away.

Knuckle Tattoos of the Alamo City Tattoo Expo

Hello everybody!

Two weeks ago the KnuckleTattoos.com crew headed down to San Antonio for the Alamo City Tattoo Expo. We met a ton of great people talked to them about their knuckle tattoos. I got some great pictures and we heard some great stories. My pal Kai from Mad Pengin came along for the romp and caught a bunch of interviews on video. We will be posting the videos as we have time to edit them all together. In the mean time, here are the photos I took. As always, if these are your knuckles or the knuckles of someone you know and you want to add the story, just email me at nathan[at]knuckletattoos[dot]com and I will feature the story in a separate post.

Check ’em out!

I took this photo! I met this lovely lady on her way out of the Jackalope a little over a week ago. Those are her friends waiting for her in the back ground. They were getting a little impatient, waiting to get to the next bar.

Every time I think I’ve found all the knuckle tattoos in Austin, it turns out I’m wrong.

The Tattoos of the Lonestar Round Up

I spent last weekend at the Lonestar Rod & Kustom Round Up soaking up the sun talking to people, and admiring all the amazing cars and trucks. There was music, vendors, pinstripers, artists and more types of pomade than you can shake a stick at. But most of all for me, there were tons of beautiful knuckle tattoos. Check them out after the jump:

The Knuckle Tattoos of South by Southwest

Hello gentle readers,

Last week was the South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas. I spend most of the week at Beerland working the door and taking photos of knuckle tattoos. I didn’t get the details on most of them since I was kind of busy. Hopefully some of them will contact me and I’ll be able to update with their stories.

See the whole set after the jump.
