There are always a lot of jokes and good vibes floating through the studio so tattooing all day doesn't feel like a job. It's rewarding to see my clients as excited as I am.

Tattooing is historical, cultural and a great form of art but it should always be safe for both the client and the tattoo practitioner.

Having previously graduated from a 2-year commercial arts class, I thought that commercial illustration was the best way to make a living doing art. But the more tattoos that I did, the more I realized what artistic career potential tattooing had and I enjoyed it.

I like walking into the studio everyday and having completely custom, diverse artwork to do. And my clients keep the interesting ideas flowing in.

We are where our thoughts have taken us.

I get to do some kind of artwork almost everyday and it just so happens that I can pay the bills and support my family while doing it.
