Classy Coop

\"Classy Coop\" Cooper Manley. Tattoo artist, Illustrator, Painter and everything else he can get his hands on. Started in the beach a little punk ass kid in the early \"CKY\" \"Jack Ass\" days . I always Doodle\'d all class long if I wasn\'t clowning. I went to Wexford for art in Gr 9. After getting kicked out the same year, I moved to the scartown streets at the tender age of 14. Doing graffiti and everything classy that came along with it was the life for me... Drinking forties an smoking fatty\'s by day, Hopping trains and throwing up pieces by night. TTC guard encounters and CN Rail po,po with salt guns were a daily occurrence. lol Good times!!After magically graduating high school at the tender age of 20, I needed a change of scenery. I applied and immediately got accepted to Ringling College of Art and Design In Sunny Florida. After two years of top notch work I no longer had flow to finish my schooling. Ailing legal problems forced me to come back home one year later. Not giving up. Immediately upon arrival I started tattooing out of my homies house in scarbs. I have constantly been freelance tattooing out of my own studio ever since, working freelance illustration jobs for local businesses, hip hop artists, bands musicians and clothing company\'s. My own clothing soon enough. I continuously paint, create and build... This is me. Because of this I will be Forever Free.
