I am a self taught artist who has always had art around me. My mother
was an artist who inspired me to draw and paint as a kid, I miss her dearly!I
have been painting since I could hold a paint brush, air brushing at 13
and tattooing at 14
I
learned the hard way of course with a home made machine and crappy equipment.
I looked at many artist books & mag’s like tattoo, boris, tod
mcfarlen, graffiti trying to learn from what little reference I had at
the time. At 18
I got my first “professional machine” from the ads
you see in the mag’s, you know the kits that work like SHIT! At 22 I got my first
job at a shop called distinctive ink. I had no shop experience,but thanks
to my good friend Lonnie.o who gave me the chance I started my tattoo
career from there I have just been learning and still learning.I believe
you must always be set on learning to always push your skills. My favorite
style is black & gray photo work and freehand shit that’s the
best. I also do color work when I get the chance. I have been influenced
by so many friends that I’ve made along the way such as rick walters,
catfish carl,juan puentes,jack rudy, corry miller, kari barba, 2 cents,
Antoino, pint, chuy, eric and so many other’s who are always’s
pushing each other to always progress!!! Hope you enjoy the website and
thanks for checking out my studio.
