    Lower Haight Art Walk, Get What You Gets! Friday, April 6, 2012, ALL DAY!

    Artwalk
    That’s right y’all! It’s that time of year again. The next Lower Haight Art Walk will be on Friday April 6th from 6pm-9:30pm but we will, once again, be doing our $60 Get What You Get Tattoos all day (from noon until ????). There’s lots of other cool stuff going on in the neighborhood too so even if you don’t want to get a tattoo you should come check out all the art, food carts, musical entertainment. It is also, sadly, the closing party for Lower Haters so come down and give them your love as well!

    Alright, Internets! You are getting WAY OUT OF CONTROL. facebook, website, flickr., twitter, twatter, tumblr, blogspot. Jesus. I can’t keep up anymore! I feel like I’m drowning in online post sites and picture pages. What the shit. My dear client Kelly Strodl helps people with this stuff for a living and she is helping me rope all of these sites together so that everyone in the shop can easily keep you updated on what we’re doing. So. This is the beginning. It might take a minute or 2 for me to get all of this working and for everyone else to get it figured out but once we do? WATCH OUT. yeah internets. I’m about to kick your butt! Boom.

    For post number one I’d like to share a photo of an unfinished tattoo that I (Holly) have been working on.

    Thanks and have a nice day.
