I did this on my friend Shane, one of the creative forces behind the awesome metal band Oh, Sleeper. From Shane's blog: "Nick Baxter did this piece. It represents the creative circle. That art inspires art, and to always keep creating. The Pen and Sword must respect each other and out of this union...the seed grows. Its a reminder for me that the music I create might somehow inspire someone else to do something great, just like other peoples art and music have inspired me to create what I have."

Three days of becoming a better artists, tattooers, and people! The Rock River Tattoo Art Expo will combine aspects of artist-focused professional development events with the style of a larger tattoo convention, open to the public. The two convention floors will be filled with artist and vendor booths, with the artists showcasing not only tattooing but work in other mediums as well. Some booths will feature live painting alongside the tattoo booths. There will be additional vendor booths in some of the hallways and auxiliary spaces along with a museum exhibit showcasing some important tattoo artifacts including some of local significance. Throughout the weekend there will be activity on the main stage including interviews, talks by high-profile speakers, a historical discussion, tattoo art critiques, and a daily showcase of work that was completed on the convention floor.
