You probably didn’t know who I was before 2012, or how much work it took to become 2012 Liz. What you didn’t see during those early years was me busting my ass working second jobs, taking part-time non-art gigs, and living way under my mean

Upside DOWN had a blast Saturday night at the Harbor View Yacht Club in Toledo! Weather was perfect, thanks to all our friends who came out! Dustin, Pango, Jay and Jay Jay from Imposters In Effect jumped up and did a mini set, it was badass

You don’t have to turn tattoo work away to build a calendar full of dream pieces. If your calendar’s empty, you take what comes, and you go out of your way to get more of it, and that’s real. But the mistake isn’t taking work you need, it’s

I have a client, 16 years tattooing, who becomes friends with most everyone she tattoos. Once that happens, she can’t bring herself to charge them what she actually needs to charge. But she’s not undercharging because she doesn’t know. She’

Doing multiple styles isn't automatically a problem. The real question is whether you're versatile on purpose or versatile because committing feels risky. Comment or DM COACH if you want help figuring out which one is true for you. #candidc

Slapped some 11-50 SIT Strings on Blackie for a C Standard tuning, for the new DOWN song Blood Oath. We usually play in C #, that half step down really adds some beef! 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻 Saturday night, 7 p.m. at Harborview Yacht Club in Toledo.

I used to think the problem was my clients. That I just needed people to reach out already ready to get a cool tattoo, without me having to educate every client on cost and what actually makes a piece good. But the real problem was I was bu
