Hey Smooth!
Thanks so much for the beautiful work of art on my arm. The tattoo of St. Therese couldn't have turned out any better than it did. I can't believe the compliments I receive on it. It is so life like and I am really glad I made the move to get it. I am also glad that I decided to get it on my arm instead of my leg, it is much easier to show off. When times get rough, my saint is always close at hand.
Have a wonderful 2008. Maybe we will see you again soon....

Smooth,
To you and your staff, we wish you a very joyous holiday season.
Thank you so very much for the beautiful work you did for us. The professionalism you and your staff display is second only to your God given talents; of which you should be very proud.
We show our artwork to everyone we know, and everyone has said how beautiful both works are. Don't be surprised if you see us again, wanting another piece done.
Thank you very much,
Rick and Terri Richard
Smooth,
I just wanted you to know how much I'm enjoying my tattoo. If someone had told me a year ago that at age 43 I would get my first tattoo I never would have believed them, but now my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.While those who know me are initially shocked that I have a tattoo, I've gotten nothing but compliments on it and how great it looks. The most surprising thing to me is how it makes me feel about myself and how much more comfortable I am with my self since I've gotten "inked". It has really been a very liberating experience and I'm looking forward to having more work done. I've already got some thoughts on what I would like you to do next.
Take care and thanks,
Tom

Smooth,
I thought after having you do my third tattoo, you deserve a huge thank you and just having you know how much I truly appreciate you doing nothing less than perfect. I still love every tattoo as much as the day I was “inked”. You have always made me feel comfortable and I always have a great time “shoot'n the <manure>” with you and catching up. Who doesn't love sarcasm? Besides being an excellent artist and a man of many talents, you are an all around great man with a warm heart. Thank you so much for leaving me with great, permanent memories.
Always,
Emily
Smooth,
Just a note to thank you for the great job you did on my tattoo! My boys were impressed #1, that mom got a tattoo and #2, for what I chose. The bear and the hat is awesome and really means a lot to me. A constant reminders of my 'babies" (even if they are in their 30's!).The whole experience was delightful from beginning to end. It didn't hurt as much as I feared! And it healed beautifully. The only night it was sore was the first. You were right, I got a lot of unsolicited advice from people on how to care for it. HOWEVER, I followed your instructions to the letter and would recommend others to do the same! Feel free to use me as a reference, especially for the 'older' crowd! I have told everyone who will listen how great the experience was, and hope you get a lot of new customers because of it! Thanks again!

Hey Smooth: I just wanted share something with you. I had to get an x-ray of my foot. The technician stopped what she was doing to say, "Wow what a beautiful tattoo!"She said it was so beautiful and soft looking, it distracted her from her job. Just writing you this to say, "GOOD JOB!" It really is beautiful. In case you don't remember, I had this done at the tattoo party in Juneau a couple of months ago.

Smooth,
Thank you so very much for Sat afternoon - Karen and I had a fantastic time. She was very impressed with your professionalism, the awesome "fun" you brought to her tattoo, and your huge artistic ability (I had already told her all this, but she needed to see it herself). She absolutely loves it (you did such an awesome job). Mine is doing great too! I love it! As always, you did a fantastic job for both myself and my friend, made our "girls day out" over the top. I wish I could verbalize my thanks and appreciation properly. I could go on and on about how special I think you are, but you already know.

Hey Smooth,
Glad to see you are still in the vacinity! Especially since I recommend your work to everyone. I've gotten so many compliments on my tattoos, people are really impressed with the one on my back! Hope all is well with you and yours. See you soon.

Smooth,
I wanted to thank you for the great work you did on my tattoo! It's my best one yet, and I'm sure I'm not finished getting more. I've had 2 tattoos done here in Vegas where I live, and yours is the by far the best. Whenever I'm in Wisconsin and itching for another tattoo, I'll be knocking on your door!

Smooth,
My tattoo has healed beautifully. Thanks! I saw my pics on the rework page, too cool. If you are in the Orlando area let me know I'm sure I can round up some business.
Sincerely,

Smooth,
Thanks for the note. We appreciate your support and wicked ass tat work! ;) I can't tell you how many compliments I get on my tattoo (well, I could, but that would be one seriously long email). Believe it or not, it makes me a happier person every day when I look at it!I'll never forget when we came in there the first time and were talking about location of the work, etc. Then right before you started in on my arm, you asked me if I was sure this was what I wanted to do.... I'll never forget this. I don't think I've had more conviction about many things in my life than what I wanted for a tattoo, and where I wanted it.
Thanks again.
Happy holidays to you and yours.

Follow up letter:
SmoothThank you so very much for spending all that time with us last night and adding to the slowly-but-surely-growing snowstorm on my arm. I sincerely appreciate it, and couldn't be happier about my choice in artist, designs, placement, etc. Thank you for putting all the effort into it, they look amazing, and I'm entirely satisfied. Again, keep up the good work.
What goes around tends to come back around in one way or another- your pride in what you do is inspiring. Good to see you again!Enjoy the summer,
Chris Funk - Madison, WI
Hey Smooth,
I LOVE the tattoo you did last Friday of my dog! I mean I LOVE it. Oh is
was sore...but being the tough guy I am I lived! ;-)
Not one scab formed and I'm taking care of it just like you said. Yesterday it peeled like sunburn and today that seems to
have stopped. Again, I can't put into words how much I like this...everyone who has seen
it has been so impressed.

Hi Smooth,
Thank you so much for the beautiful tattoo. It is so simple, but so elegant. I am really happy with it. Words do not accurately described the feeling I have for each & every tattoo you permanently placed on me.
As Always,
