I've been running around like crazy with tattoos and paintings not to mention the day to day life of father of soon to be 4 boys. I love painting and these art shows gave me a chance to give back doing just that. If you are in the area of either show please swing by and show support for a good cause.

Hundreds of tattooers from around the world are donating paintings to be auctioned off at www.austinartforanimals.com (under construction). All proceeds will be donated to APA! and will be used to buy pet supplies and help keep dogs and cats off of other shelters’ euthanasia lists.
The opening party is taking place at Red7 (611 E 7th St) September 9th at 8pm. There will be friendly people, door prizes, food (courtesy of The Vegan Yacht), and plenty of artwork for your viewing / purchasing pleasure.

Hey Everyone, We at Jinx Proof Tattoo will be hosting a charity art show/auction on Friday September 9th, 2011. The purpose of the show is to celebrate the lives of those lost in the attacks of 9/11. All money raised through the sale of art is going to be donated towww.FriendsofSeanLugano.com. Sean was the cousin of our friend and fellow tattooer, J.R. Maloney of Vanguard Tattoo in Nyack, NY. Sean died at the World Trade Center and this website was formed to help various foundations that represent Sean's passion for life, health, sports, and friendship.
