Gary is also an artist who paints with acrylics and watercolors. He takes old cigar boxes and repurposes them by stripping them down, and painting traditional tattoo designs on them then adds a shiny coat of varnish. He also paints watercolor designs of traditional tattoos on heavy watercolor paper. Most of these designs are from the early 1900s to 1950.

Cigar boxes prices range from 20 to 50 dollars depending on size. The two pictured here are $50  I will also do custom designs  more examples will be posted as they era completed
