Magic Rooster Tattoo Collaboration
Magic Rooster Tattoo is a Tattoo Studio based in Mauldin, South Carolina. It is owned by Jeff Pence. The artist involved in this collaboration are Jeff Pence, Brandy Artz and LeeJohn Dean
Tattoo artists are, first and foremost, artists. Their canvas may be human skin rather than paper or canvas, but their process—conceiving, designing, and executing original works—reflects the same creativity and discipline found in any art form. They study line, color, composition, and texture; they interpret symbolism and emotion through imagery; and they collaborate with their clients to create deeply personal pieces of visual art.
A tattoo artist designing custom watch faces approaches the project like skin art — blending personal symbolism, precision linework, and emotional storytelling into a compact digital canvas. They translate the visual language of tattoos — bold outlines, shading gradients, traditional motifs, or illustrative realism — into timekeeping designs that feel alive and personal. Every face becomes a miniature tattoo for the wrist, reflecting identity, style, and creativity in motion.

Pinstriping — the art of painting fine decorative lines on vehicles and objects — has a long and fascinating history that stretches back centuries before its association with hot rods and custom cars.
Long before cars existed, artisans used fine lines to enhance and accentuate form:
Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome: Craftsmen used painted lines to decorate chariots, pottery, and furniture. The purpose was often both aesthetic and symbolic, highlighting curves or craftsmanship.
Carriages and wagons (1700s–1800s): By the 18th century, carriage makers in Europe and America used pinstriping to emphasize panel edges and show off craftsmanship. These delicate hand-painted lines often matched the coach’s trim or family crest colors.
Jeff is the owner and amazing artist and these designs are truly unique. The watches are built on a 39mm diameter stainless steel watch case. They feature a Seiko NH35a watch movement with black leather straps.

Cherry blossoms — or sakura — hold deep symbolic meaning in tattoo art, especially in Japanese and East Asian traditions, but their beauty and symbolism have spread globally. Their significance can vary depending on cultural context and personal interpretation.
Meaning: Appreciation for the present moment, awareness of life’s impermanence (mono no aware in Japanese philosophy).
Common interpretation in tattoos: A reminder to live fully, embrace change, and find beauty in temporary moments.
Brandy is a fantastic artist and this is a wonderful design, the watch is built on a slightly smaller 36mm diameter watch case. It features a Seiko NH35a watch movement with a blue leather strap.

A cherry tree tattoo (or cherry blossom tattoo) carries deep and beautiful symbolism that varies depending on cultural and personal context.
In Japan, cherry blossoms — sakura — are a symbol of:
The fleeting nature of life: Cherry blossoms bloom beautifully but briefly, reminding us of the impermanence of existence.
Beauty in transience: They represent finding beauty in moments that don’t last forever.
Renewal and rebirth: Since they bloom each spring, they also signify renewal and new beginnings.
