  1. Hi James,
    I’m a old class mate of your sister and brother (Cindy and Noe) I fell in love with this pic of the skull. Im very much into the dias de los muertos art and would love to get this pic as a tattoo in the near future. But I thought I asked you how much for a copy to take it to my tattoo artist? Would be honored to have your approval and blessing.. LOL

  15. Hey. Like many others here, I fell in love with your sketch and would like to use it as the focus of a new tattoo for myself… I’d like to extend the floral element so that the full tatt will extend from my chest and shoulder onto the top of my arm… I just want to check again that it’s cool with you to use. Of course I’d be more than happy to send photos of the finished product.

  16. Hi James. I love this! I would be so grateful if I could ask your permission to base my tattoo on your design? I will be in Mexico in September, and I would love to commemorate my trip with a sugar skull tattoo to celebrate my family and all they have given me. I will gladly send you a picture once it has been done. x

      Thanks so much for asking. I would love to post your picture once you have it done. Family is big for me too so I will be excited to see your tatt once it’s done. Have fun in Mexico and keep me posted.
