Gruesome Torso
By Nick Baxter - Nick Baxter
This full torso wraparound tattoo (see other views elsewhere in my gallery) was an epic collaboration between Jeff Ensminger and I that spanned approximately 5 years. Vittorio is a warrior and a dedicated client, flying from his home in Italy once or twice per year to get multiple brutal sessions from Jeff and I simultaneously. We had several very difficult coverups on the front portion you see here, as well as working into previous tattoos on the front and back, done by some other great tattooers, including Brad Bako in Australia. In the end, we came out with a fairly cohesive bio-organic motif of gruesome human anatomy...all of which puts Vittorio in the running for the most metal dude ever.

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.
