MYTHOS. That was the name of the tattoo-based art show held at
All or Nothing Tattoo and Art Gallery in Marietta, Georgia. The turn out
was great, with art lovers both inside and out of the industry representing.
They weren't just there for the superb catering, either. Many shops
brought their entire crew to be inspired by the work of their peers.
This well organized event featured a slew of professional tattooist's concepts
on paper and canvas from the likes of Joe Capobianco, Dan Henk, Eric Merrill,
Samuel Parker and Jime Litwalk. Their show pieces were beautifully framed on the
walls, although prints were also available in their raw state. Other pieces by artists
such as Canman, Aaron Bell, Ron Earhart, Sarah Peacock, Jay Chastain, Dave Fox,
Jamie Burness, Mike Belzel, DJ Minor, The Bishop, Phil Holt, Rodney Raines, Jason
Blanton, Brandon Bond, Albie Rock, Jeremy Whitley, Phil Colvin, Dave Teddar, Kele
Sparrowhawk, Sean Herman, Justin Kontzen, Joe Pasternik, Mike Eaton, Bill
Conner, Hunter Spanks and Scott Sylvia were also on display, each one a testament
to its creator's skill.
The party was wrapped up with a raffle,
not only of prints and original canvas
paintings, but tattoo time with the shop's
artists, including Albie Rock, who has been
doing a guest spot at AoN. Body jewelry, a
veritable plethora of gratuitous pornography,
and even shop apprentice Scott (who
was shaved down and dressed in drag
throughout the evening), were put on the
block and raffled off. Over $6000 worth of
time and merchandise was given away, and
a good time was had by all.
If you missed this event, well, too bad.
But you are not completely out of luck as
there will be another showing this month.
It will be held Sunday, November 21 at 7pm at All
or Nothing again, so if you didn't make it to
this one give some serious consideration to
attending the next. It's worth the time and
the miles to see such a concentrated display
of talent.
