If you could connect with a tattoo like you can with another person, wouldnt that be something? Get those first-time-butterflies. Feel invigorated by the spark. Turned on perhaps
Well, theres just something about Jacob James Gardner. With a small body of art thats difficult to procure, let alone analyze, I still cant deny an emotional connection that calmly bubbles to the surface when I stare transfixed into the crafted concoctions and vivid abstractions at hand.
With only two years of scratch under his belt, this young gun is quickly become a veteran of taking risks in the medium. For JJ, its not so much about the execution as it is about the composition. Mr. Gardner, no doubt, strives to convey emotion in the soulless eyes of his subjects no matter how he approaches them stylistically.
Peep this daily obsession at the True Tattoo in Varsity Lake.
