Tree of Life- Dave Gillstrap

I’ve spent the last few days in Las Vegas, unwinding and catching up with my extended family at the annual APP Conference. A yearly highlight is the time I get to spend with Dave Gillstrap.  Usually poolside. Always surprising in scope and content, spending time with Dave is always entertaining and educational; we always seem to challenge our own passion for scarification by dissecting the current culture of both artist and client. I generally come out of these meetings re-energized and inspired.

Shortly after getting back to Philadelphia, Dave shared this cutting that he recently completed.  He titled it “Tree of Life-ish”. Spectacular cutting by one of the nicest guys in the world.
