I met Jodi as a youngster growing up in Santa Cruz. Her being the cousin of one of my best friends, we had a lot of group activities together, but only now have we found out that we have so much in common involving the arts.
She surprised me years ago when I discovered that she was an amazing artist with not only watercolor or ink as her medium, but taking it to a whole new level with the art of tattooing. Tattooing is something that takes great training and skill as well as dedication to your craft. She has an eye for how a piece will wrap around the curves of a persons body and how things will look best integrated with other work. Jodi is part owner of Red Room Tattoo in Chico California and will be making more time to tattoo here in Santa Cruz California.
Our piece for the collaborative show will involve the detail orientated work of Jodi along side my cartoon-style women. We hope to make something that will be loved and cherished by a special someone in their home, office or business.
