Every time I turn around I feel like another one of my closest friends dies. This one truly stings and leaves me with an empty pit in my stomach. I spent the better part of yesterday crying that eventually it just started to hurt to cry anymore so I had to force myself to fall asleep. I met you when you were 13 and I was about to turn 16. Our dream was always to play music and travel the world together. We did it! My parents watched you grow up and you watched my children grow up. You were their Uncle Jaime. You were always there for us. You were looked up to, and adored by all. Everything seems a lot dimmer without you here now. I will forever cherish all the wonderful memories we’ve shared. Your dim light finally gets to shine! 🖤💔 Until next time, my friend! (at Downtown Los Angeles) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqCWu9Jl36/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sometimes the memories are just too hard to cover. This is a redo of a tattoo that was done with a guitar string 20+ years ago. SWIPE to see the original! . . . . #besttradtattoos #boldwillhold #bright_and_bold #calpolyslo #classictattoos #customtattoo #oldlines #sanluisobispo #skinart #spartantattooclub #traditionaltattoos #tradworkers #whipshaded (at Downtown SLO) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV8PvvUP7Ej/?utm_medium=tumblr

Everyone kept saying no way and I kept asking when?! Huge thank you to this city for having my back! Three years in the making, but it’s finally time. I would like to introduce to you the VERY FIRST (and after 27 years of being outlawed) tattoo studio in the city of Paso Robles, California. Pioneer Tattoo Company would like to welcome you with open arms. I am VERY proud to call this town my home. Let’s make something special! #pioneertattooco #pasorobles #choplife (at Downtown Paso Robles) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVv_ABjP6I7/?utm_medium=tumblr
