Lucky I really want to experience an isolation tank, might I ask what was it like?

You should try it! Fortunately my partner owns a float center, Float On, here in Portland, Oregon. So I am able to float pretty much as often as I like (about once a week). A very relaxing and unique experience. 20% gravity, no sensoryΒ input, sound-proof,Β water skinΒ temperature, natural dopamine release- there's lots to be enjoyed.Β I find it relaxing, insightful, medative, centering... it just feels good to let go more than you ever thought was possible. Β 
Let me know what you think after you've floated!Β

I wish I lived close to a float center. I am 5 hours away from Portland

That's okay, I'm sure there must be a center closer to you. You can go to floatation locations floatationlocations.com and use their map to find the center closest to you.Β
I'm a licensed tattoo artist, actually... and I say stay out of the tanks for 3 weeks after getting your new tattoo, just to be safe. The healing process usually doesn't take more than 2 weeks, but the last thing you want to do is soak or stress out your healing skin.

Again, breath taking! Whoa! When you do the watercolor washes, do you block out or use Frisket? Or do you wash the entire piece?

Thank you! Haha, that would be far too professional, my style is more "intuitive/primitive traditional"
