ON THE WEB

Several excellent tattooists in Europe are doing fantastic Polynesian style tattoos and have online galleries. Check out Jacqueline's work at: http://www.corazontattoo.ch/ and Rob Deut at http://www.robdeut.com/

Our dear friend Mokomae, the tattooist from Rapa Nui, is interviewed in a video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEGJa8uZ-GU&NR=1

There are some great photos of the recent Festival of Pacific Arts online at: http://pacartsas.com/pictures/pictures_home.htm Check out each of the photo links there in the left-hand column.

A good article on Hawaiian tattoo that ran in a SF newspaper some time ago is still archived online, see http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2001/12/30/LV173279.DTL

There is a historical article on Samoan tattoo at http://tattoobody.org/index.php?page=samoa-tattoo-history

My SCHEDULE

Aug. 5th - Sept. 5th home on O'ahu
Sept. 10th - 21st SF Bay Area (Pleasanton)
Sept. 26th - Oct. 7th Los Angeles (Redondo Beach)
Oct. 9th - Oct. 19th Oceanside (Momilani's)
Oct. 23rd I'll be home for only a week prior to heading to Tahiti!
early Dec. I'll head back to the SF area again.

The schedule is pretty full, as always, but I can do consultations, and I always keep a wait list in case of cancellations. If you are seriously interested, please call me at 808-734-8677 BEFORE Sept 5th, or e-mail tattoo@lava.net, although I far prefer the phone for initial inquiries as I talk far faster than I type, and I rarely e-mail while on the mainland. Details on locations & dates are on the web at http://www.tattootraditions.alohaworld.com/schedule.htm
