Persona Grata: Derek Hess

The bf and I were glued to LA Ink for awhile. It featured Miss Kat von D and her tattoo biz and an incredible amount of amazing (as well as some not so much) sketching skillz. In one episode, we were introduced to Derek Hess, a rather well known artist himself. They brought this kid in who planned on getting inked with a drawing by Mr. Hess and the drawing was AWESOME! His style is mainly sketches in pen (ink!) and the results have been captured on many popular album covers. He now has his own clothing line called STRHESS that showcases some of his most noted pieces. So now the bf and I both want the same thing: a tattoo AND a shirt!
