Mr.Charlie from Tokyo in Brasil working on a piece for ROLLING STONE JAPAN showed up the studio a couple of weeks ago...

On my last day before leaving SP I tattooed Coca's youngest sister Julia for the 2nd time...she already wears a piece I did on her about 1 year ago...she convinced me to work on my last chance to relax at the SP studio telling me that she had such a intense dream about this 2nd piece that it was now impossible for her to rest unless she followed the "voice"...I told her I understood that feeling very well...our session was not the average one...for one thing it was the last one of this "tour" in Brasil and also the last tattoo I did with Coca as my assistant , the fact that it was her sister made a difference and created a "warmer" atmosphere...to complete the night my cat Tony, decided to show up after being gone for more than a day for the first time ,the only problem being that he was stuck on the very top of a tree in my own backyard...in the middle of Julia's tattoo we had to organize a rescue operation and get him down after being told by the fire department that we were on our own...the rescue worked and it did make the day even more dramatic...I went back to tattoo Julia with a few scratches and another good storie to share...
