This is based on a cool story about a firefly who is so beautiful, Every insect wants to be with her. She will only consider being with someone who has the same fire in their belly as she does. So the moths and butterflies begin to fly towards her to consume her flame in an effort to attain that same fire. Of course they all burn and die. Moral: Don’t kill yourself trying to meet someone else’s expectations. #memphistattooartist #backpiece Done with the help of my friends at https://images.tattoonow.com/tenants/jake-meeks/videos/2026/05/2fbc9f2c-230f-4916-af44-6edf934b664e.mp4 yes 2026-06-15T12:11:35.214+00:00 Insect Illustrative Color Fantasy Neo-Traditional https://jake-meeks.tattoonow.com/gallery/tattoos/color-illustrative-full-sleeve-gypsy-and-bear~c7275094-8a86-4934-83ac-7ed907999547 https://images.tattoonow.com/tenants/jake-meeks/images/2026/05/c7dec710-9d4c-40ec-ae5f-b38d056b10f8.jpg Color illustrative full sleeve, gypsy and bear Chris’ outer arm is fully healed now.thought I would share some of the journey.

This is a new venture for me. An evolution, maybe? I began this is an oil painting on Masonite board. around the same time I was taking an AI image crafting course from @stevedmcdonald which focused on training diffusion models/mood boards based on your own library of tactile/real life work. After many hours of model training, photoshop drawing, more AI modeling, we have arrived at this. It still feels stiff to me. Not as loose as my paintings but maybe similar to my tattooing. Either way, I’m enjoying the process. Thanks @stevedmcdonald for the inspiration and instruction. Looking forward to playing around with this idea more. https://images.tattoonow.com/tenants/jake-meeks/videos/2026/05/c2276fd9-67a2-4749-a399-20b571096ded.mp4 yes 2026-05-26T13:13:51.727+00:00 Realism Illustrative Surrealism Portraits Animals https://jake-meeks.tattoonow.com/gallery/tattoos/illustrative-mushroom-sleeve-in-color~276228c8-ec03-4ba4-b365-b7eba08b0fb1 https://images.tattoonow.com/tenants/jake-meeks/images/2026/05/881f45f1-bfc8-413a-b430-b1556aae9987.jpg Illustrative mushroom sleeve in color Excited to continue building off this mushroom piece today.

Waiting for “perfect” is the trap. And when your self-worth gets tied to a final piece, it feeds into all the psychological stuff we already carry as artists. Watch the Full Episode on YouTube.

Me? I have Kumiko.
