Dagger and peony
By Jeff Gogue - Jeff Gogue Art
A dagger through a rose tattoo is a western classic symbol of union, male and female, but it resonates with so many cultures, its dichotomy, its interdependency, duality, yin and yang, intention and perception. Its a universal principle. this modern take with an antique air was drawn during some down time I had and offered via social media as a tattoo lottery. The client had to email and was randomly picked from all the emails received. The experience was unique and exciting, and I met an amazing person through it. This dagger and peony was done in one long session, start to finish, and it healed perfectly. I love this tattoo.

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.
