The Edge District, PBR and Keeping Saint Petersburg Local

Since the shop has moved to Saint Petersburg, I've been trying to get more involved with some local art projects. Last month I entered a "Keep Saint Petersburg Local" shirt design at the Morean Arts Center to promote the downtown area. There was also a PBR art show that both Steve Lanier and myself were chosen as the best of the show. This month I designed a logo for the Edge district which if chosen will be used as a banner in our district which is from (9th St. to 16th St.) I feel like Saint Petersburg is where our shop belongs, and have been motivated every day I step into the new and improved Classic Tattoos.
