Visual Art – Los Angeles
A passionate tattooer who has always painted with heart first and mind second. Hard work and the constant hustle of the trade is definitely an all night rager that lasts until your'e six feet under. "Retirement for a tattooer is a bullet to the head", the industry says and for that i'll await gratefully because if i was not tattooing id rather be dead. Art is practically the only vessel that can translate whatever complicated message that one decides to be heard or seen, on canvas alive or not. Tradition in tattooing is bold and with a youthful contemporary technical application im looking to progress tattooing while still upholding and respecting the great men and women who gave everything back to tattooing to be what it is today. That's what it all boils down to for myself to give back to tattooing and to honor it with my life.
