best wife ever

so this morning i get woken up by my wife going

its sunny get up you need to go out for a ride,

so I did. It was cold but boy was she right thanks baby

workin

the word on the street

As of March 10th I will no longer be at tattooing at Adrenaline. I'd like to thank Dave, the crew, and all the people I tattooed there over the past 3 years. I had a great time - thank you!

One of the reasons I went to work at Adrenaline in the first place was to work with Mark Ainsworth, one of the raddest people I know. So it is a great pleasure to say I will be working with him again, at his brand-spanking-new studio Rain City Tattoo, located on Broadway at Columbia here in Vancouver. His new shop is a bare-bones back-to-basics tattoo shop: just tattoos, art and fun times.

So after March 10th you can find me here:

Rain City Tattoos
101-223 West Broadway
Vancouver BC
604-569-1522

new hours will be wenesday to sunday 12-6 to book now for the new shop email me at kirk@kirksheppardtattoos.com

Hope to see you all soon!
