How long have you been a<br />
tattoo artist?<br />
10 years<br />
Do you remember the first<br />
tattoo that you ever done?<br />
Yeah... The first tattoo I ever<br />
did was of a stitched up wound<br />
on my left forearm. Super fun.<br />
How would you describe your<br />
tattooing style?<br />
Versatile. I pretty much tattoo<br />
whatever walks through the<br />
door. Of course I also like to<br />
collaborate on custom projects<br />
with clients. Definitely want to<br />
focus more on horror.<br />
What is the secret to achieving<br />
such detail in your tattoos?<br />
Sight. Focusing on emulating as much from an image onto<br />
flesh.<br />
Where is the most difficult place for you to tattoo someone?<br />
Haven’t had much difficulties, but I would say armpits.<br />
How may tattoos do you currently have?<br />
20 maybe.<br />
Did you do any of them yourself?<br />
Yep. Stitched up wound.<br />
Do your friends let you tatt them up for practice?<br />
I’ll tattoo fellow artist at the shop from time to time.<br />
How do you feel about drunk people getting<br />
tattooed?<br />
I feel they should sober up<br />
and make decisions like<br />
getting a tattoo when they<br />
are not inebriated.<br />
What is the most bizarre<br />
tattoo you have ever put on<br />
someone?<br />
I tattooed a demon face on<br />
woman’s vagina before. May<br />
appear bizarre for some.<br />
What tattoo artists, if any,<br />
do you draw inspiration<br />
from?<br />
Elliot Kohek, Yarson tattoo,<br />
Steve Butcher, David Vega,<br />
Bryan Merck and sooo many<br />
others.<br />
What’s the secret to being a great tattoo artist?<br />
Consistency and focus.<br />
Who is your favorite tattoo artist?<br />
Eddie Stabz haha<br />
For a first timer, where should they not get a tattoo if they<br />
want to avoid a lot of pain?<br />
Ribs.<br />
Words of advice for anyone that wants to become a tattoo<br />
artist?<br />
Draw, work hard and hustle!<br />
Where can we get inked by you and see more of your work?<br />
