TIME KEEPS A TICKIN’
Our Instagram got hacked a few months back and I had not updated the link on this site since. My apologies if anyone had an unpleasant experience due to this modern dilemma.
Last time I touched this site I was claiming four years of Kallisti, we are going on Seven years now.
I have so many of you to thank for that, really its ridiculous. A few minutes ago I was going over all the tattoo artwork I have amassed from 23 years of doing this. My math is bad but my first tattoo was on my own leg on October 1998, however long that is now.
Instagram continues to be the easiest way to update and display artwork nowadays so please visit the following link to get a peek at what we been up to lately: https://www.instagram.com/kallistiorlandotat/

Kallisti Body Art turns 4 years old this year!
Yes, this March it will be four years we have been here, all thanks to you guys of course! Thank you so very much!
I have not posted any new pictures here in the site since we opened shop, been real busy and there are so many platforms to keep up with now days.
Instagram has a very good record of all the work done in the past four years:
How long does a tattoo take me
In the following pictures I will state how long each piece took to do in an attempt to show the difference in time depending on style.
Here is a collage in which you can see the progress of this half sleeve session by session. Trash Polka is a very addictive style for me. All this together took about eight hours.
(Click on the pictures to see them full size).
This next sleeve started about five years ago, great feeling of accomplishment to see it finished. Since it has taken so long to complete, I have no clear idea of how long all of this took. I should also mention that the barbed wire tribal was there before me.
Up next, this forearm was done all the way around in the span of three consecutive days for a total of eleven hours of tattooing. Much pain, much fun, much Rawesomeness.

Skeleton tree wrapping up a leg alongside another piece that I did last year. This took about eight hours.
Next his forearm piece too just three hours to do, wrist to arm bend:
Seven hours it took to do this very traditional Japanese design. Getting those solid blacks in there is time consuming but the results speak for themselves:
In order to compensate for this issue, men pfizer viagra discount can use Mast Mood oil. Consumers must never overlook the amount of dosage prescribed by the doctor and follow as directed. viagra italy Potent herbs in this herbal pill increase testosterone and relieve cialis wholesale prices you from fatigue. This means that sales of medical marijuana rival the annual revenue generated by cialis in uk , a $1.9-billion business.What’s more, the medical marijuana market is expected to nearly double in the next five years, and that’s just in the 15 U.S. states where the drug is legal. Here is a good example of how small detail takes time, this piece is just about 4×4 inches and took three and a half hours. Half deep diving suit and half astronaut. The devil is in the details!
To totally contrast the time above, this large piece only took four hours to complete. It’s all in the style, not the size that time gets taken in art. This piece has detail, lots of it, but is large and spread out making it much faster to complete.
Sugar skull on the inside of a forearm, about three hours.
Six and a half hours for this very detailed half-forearm wrap around. Small detail takes time!
This sleeve has been worked on during the past two years. Not complete yet and my guestimate on how long it has been is about fifteen hours or a bit more. There’s a lot going on in this one.
Mandala-like lotus with stippling shading, two hours.
Tattoos take different amount of times for so many different reasons. From design to placement to clients skin type there’s a myriad of things we tattooers have to take into consideration and work with.
Thanks for looking!
New Studio Up and running!
We are now open, finally after a very laborious and tedious process I can concentrate on tattooing again. After ten years of working in the Orlando area, we finally have our own spot.
We are at 1720 North Goldenrod Rd Suite 1, across the street from the Circle K where strange things are always afoot.
We are just getting started with decorating, we have some pretty cool ideas in store for this place. 
As of writing this we have been open for two weeks, and what two weeks have it been! Being getting some pretty cool pieces and finishing some other awesome ones that were in the works:
I was introduced to this “trash polka” style recently and I have head over heels fallen in love with it. Here is some Alice in Wonderland action done in that style:
I applied some of that same flavor to this little piece compacted with detail:
This was the next addition to this overall work in progress. All work done by me. 
This Egyptian Pharaoh piece is also a cover up, there was some not very nice lettering underneath this pyramid:
This next one was done all in one session, took five hours:
This next cover up work is one of my favorites ever, was very cool how this worked out:

Color anchor back of calf, took two hours:

and a dancing one:
This next one was a blast to do, very unique idea:
The “Struggle” is very real.
This story begins on Wednesday, November 18th 2015, the week before Thanksgiving. I was as usual tattooing inside my little 17’x6′ rectangle of joy that I had been working out of for the past four years, when the news came to me that the Kokopelli Salon was moving in a week! For whatever reason the salon needed to move somewhere else, immediately, which left me and my sub-lease in limbo, nowhere to go.
Having now enjoyed six years of independent ink slinging, I wasn’t about to change things, not taking any steps back. So the search for a spot to open up a shop began.
Looking for a spot to tattoo out of in Orlando (I imagine in a lot of other places) is quite difficult. Most of the time I mentioned the word “Tattoo” to a landlord, the conversation would take a complete 180, you’d think I was asking for a place to conduct human sacrifices or hold a local Isis meeting.
Eventually we found a spot that looked great for our purposes. It was ample, open, and out of the way, and according to the county zoning department, it was all good! The landlord of course, wanted nothing to do with a Tattoo Shop. After a winded speech about how I conduct business, and promises that this wouldn’t be a “circus” style shop, he agreed to let us take the spot with one condition: We were not to display the word “TATTOO” anywhere on the outside of the business. Thus the name of the shop Kallisti BODY ART.
We were all exited, finally the quest was over and we could concentrate on fixing up the place. So we did, and by January 7th the shop was all set up and even passed the State Health board inspection, we got our State Permit!
Here is the location from the outside:
This is how we got it: 
Action shot:
This was the place right after passing our inspection:
This medicinal device is contained with Sildenafil citrate which is considered as phosphodiesterase inhibitor to viagra generico cialis treat erectile dysfunction. It is identified as a specific sequence of amino buy sildenafil cheap acids including: tyrosine, leucine, arginine, isoleucine, valine, glutamine, cysteine, serine, glutamic acid, glycine, and phenylalanine with a Mono Disulfide bridge. view my storefront cialis soft uk Distraction Shutting down the debate is of course not the only means of trying to keep us from awakening. As the men ages he experience decline in the levitra viagra levels of DHT, more is the hair falling.
We were all overjoyed and ready to start tattooing, only one thing remained, the County Tax Occupational License, which is never a problem, you just pay and get a paper, like anything else.
Once we went in person to the Zoning Department, all of the sudden the song and dance changed on us. We’ve called zoning to verify that the location was allowed to be a tattoo shop 4 times, that’s right, FOUR times before signing the lease on the place, even half hour before putting pen to paper, this is serious business after all. Every time we called and gave them the address 5718 Old Cheney Highway, they confirmed that the zoning was right for the business, but this day, after we have gone through all we had, they deadpan face tell me that the location is not permitted for tattooing. This girl pulls up some ordinance “Semoran/50 overlay ordinance” that states that a Tattoo shop cannot open there.
Our world crumbled right then and there. We had just spent a lot of money on fixing up the place, signed a three year lease, there was insurance, equipment and so on…. I can’t say that it wasn’t one of the worse moments of my life. You know what made it worse, it was that damn look of sadistic satisfaction that a government employee gets in their eyes when they know you are fucked, ever see that South Park with the Comcast customer service guys? It was just like that.
After a horrible couple of hours of lamenting, crying and angry ranting, we composed ourselves and got back to it. You either bend with the wind like bamboo or snap by your own rigidity, so bend we did.
We called everyone we could, I even got commissioner Tony Ortiz on the phone, who was very understanding, thought that we had a dis-service done to us, but that was as far as that went. The manager of the zoning department called to apologize, but nothing could be done to change what happened.
We have a new location already, but I won’t announce anything until is all good and ready. This place is more centrally located, so I guess the universe don’t want me hiding in a corner any longer. The new place is under construction so it won’t be ready for us until March, but it will be worth the wait!
Here are some mandatory tattoo pictures:
Specializing in art, not just tattooing, not one style. Fuck genre.
I’ve always been a “shop artist,” meaning I am open to pretty much anything that comes through the door and thus never became rigidly bound by one single style.
Art in general encompasses so much, and to bound myself within a box, well for that I’d do something else for a living.
It’s been too long since my last post so it seems proper to start this post with the colored version of this tattoo that has been in the main page for the past six months.
It still needs a few minor details and we can call it finished.
Here is a lioness that will be part of a half sleeve:
This shows a piece in progress from drawing to shading.
Color and background are still to come.
Next up is this under the sea half sleeve, sketch and work up to shading shown. There’s a bit of a cover up going on under the coral. Color still to come.
Here is a pin up illustration I did for my T shirt Brand:

Here is a bit of cover up work on an ankle.

Made some progress on this sleeve.
This goes around the inside of the arm, right against the armpit, and its only about 3.5 inches tall on the inside. I forgot like a fool to photograph the outside. 
This is the beginning of what will be a very cool half sleeve. Had to start by getting rid of some unwanted old ink. Once the color comes in, it’ll be pretty hard to tell there was something there.
Thanks for stopping by!
Sink a fork in me.

Here is a detail pic of Seth’s other ha;f sleeve. Lots of miniature detail in this one.

Short and Sweet.
I’m real busy with drawing new cool upcoming pieces so I’ll keep last week’s recap brief, as it was a brief tattoo week either way.
Started out with the fist session on this ornate filigree style pocket watch.
There’s a lot more detail going into this, can’t wait to finish it.
Mandalas are all the rage now, here is some sketches I did for someone that asked me for one last week. “E” is a little suggestive.
She ended up going with A, and here is the result:
I thoroughly enjoyed doing the pointillism shading.
Next up is a picture of a tattoo I did 4 years ago, got to see it again as I was summoned for a new piece on the same canvas. Here it is 4 years in the skin:
Got to work some more on this add-on half sleeve project, coming along with the new stuff, gonna have to go in for some contrast correction on the dragon’s head area.
