Photos from the Dermafilia's Tattoo and Art Show | Mission District San Francisco
I was in the Mission District in San Francisco for Tribus Vivas Dermafilia's Tattoo and Graffiti Art Show (June 27th, 2009) this past weekend. It was their most successful event to date! I just wanted to thank Wilson and Kyana Pozada for inviting me as one of their guest artist and to thank everyone that supported Sekreto and I. The next Tribus Vivas Dermafilia Art Show is August 29th, 2009... more info coming soon...
