Dot shading?

Lately I have noticed a severe increase in dot shading artwork, Painfully I admit that I actually didn't notice the dot shading technique until about a month ago. Now that I have, It's all I find myself researching and trying to replicate myself. 

Has this technique always been popular or is it recently becoming the new cool? (Trendy, hipster, scene, Zack Morris.. What ever you want to call it.)

Anyway... the reason why I am making this post was to shed light on a very impressive tattoo artist by the name of Mike Adams. After discovering his dot shading techniques I began to search all over the web for other types of artwork not just traditional/new school tattoo flash, and there's a whole world of art out there that I just hadn't laid my eyes upon. 

If you have stumbled across this in the hope to see some dot shading , I am going to start you off where I began...

All hail Mike Adams (New York Tattoo Artist)

Katie Hopkins the ultimate narcissist on This Morning

Well, I am speechless! What a narcissist.. if you don't know what I am talking about from the few brief words and the soon to be recognisable name have a look at the video below. Katie Hopkins decided it was a good idea for her to jump back on "This Morning" (a British morning television show) along with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield and cause an uproar of controversy.

Extremely rude and arrogant lady.


Watch the video and head over to the Huffington post for a much better written and more entertaining blog.

Supreme – Leading the Skater Generation Since 1994

Supreme was founded in 1994 in downtown Manhattan on Lafayette Street by a group of skater enthusiasts who wanted to work with what they loved. In the last 18 years Supreme has become a center point for the skater generation and a vibrant and rebellious little home for the skate culture the world over. Supreme started with a handful of New Yorkers, who proudly took up the titles of skaters and artists, who wanted to infuse the skaters, hip-hop and punk generation with clothes and accessories that embodied the skater movement and all it stood for. 

Since that time Supreme has exploded onto the skater scene and taken the lead in the skate culture, expanding their locations from the small founding store to 15 locations worldwide. From the punk generation in London, to the hip-hop scene in LA and the new-punk genre in Tokyo; Supreme has defined the skater, hip-hop and punk generation. Supreme has given its competitors such as Stussy, Obey and Carhart a run for their money. Supreme’s stylish street wear clothing has given the skate culture a springboard for individualism and creativity, creating a progressive platform for skaters, b-boys, punks and more to show their spirit and their uniqueness to the world. 

Since its inception Supreme has lead the skate culture to higher levels by offering clothes and accessories to fit the needs of its customers. Supreme has shown its staying power in a fumbling economy and promises to continue to define the skater generation for years into the future.

Oh no Gavin Henson, back to TV?

Gavin Henson faces an uncertain future after his sacking by Cardiff Blues on Monday for drunken antics on a flight from Glasgow left him looking for his fourth club in little more than a year. The 30-year old, who departed Saracens at the start of last year and joined Toulon on a short-term contract which was not renewed after he served a suspension for sparking a fight with team-mates in a bar, had his contract with the Blues ripped up following an investigation into his behaviour by the club. Henson had issued an unreserved apology in which he admitted drinking after the Blues' RaboDirect Pro 12 defeat in Glasgow on Friday night and continuing to do so on the flight to Cardiff the following morning. He finished by saying he hoped to remain with the Blues, but his six months with the region, who have a Heineken Cup quarter-final against Leinster in Dublin this Saturday, ended after a two-hour management meeting. He was also banned from using the airline concerned, Flybe, for six months over conduct that prompted complaints from passengers. The company stressed it had a zero tolerance to unruly behaviour on its aircraft. "The safety of our passengers and staff is our No1 priority," it said. Read more here!
