Guy Aitchison/Aaron Cain Paintings

I did these paintings to trade for some amazing tattoo work I received on the television series “Tattoo Wars”. I was the fortunate victim of these two tattoo overlords. I was elated during the forty hours of consecutive tattooing, excluding my swollen, football sized hand. The show aired on TLC network about a year ago. Unfortunately the network took all footage off the internet, so I have no link or footage of the drilling sessions.

These two paintings are a product of my friendship and admiration for Aaron and Guy. These artists are considered the best and their work speaks for itself. The intensity of these paintings are a reflection of their own personal traits. They are painted a certain way because of their energy and personality as well as an interpretation on their styles. I hope that makes some sense, but when you look at the paintings you can gauge your own reactions. I see the interaction between myself and these epic tattooers as a small bridge between the graffiti and tattoo worlds.

These two paintings are part of a triptych. The third is with the ever prolific and my good friend Grime in SF. Maybe one day I’ll get all three of the paintings together for an instillation. I’m always glad to be a human canvas for such talent.
