What year did you start tattooing?
2000
Tell us about your style of work.
My style is the array of the ideas or dreams, shared or expressed by you, to me. Your thoughts combined with my imagination and light to full fruition.
How did you get into tattooing?
I've always been an artist, since I can remember. One day I went and got a tattoo. Seeing a process, I was so intrigued...seeing that at that moment I could do what I asked for better. I researched tattoo magazines where I could order what I needed to tattoo. Through struggle and not knowing, I went to tattoo studios asking if they could teach me...begging almost. After running into so many brick walls, getting laughed at and told "no," I began tattooing myself. Self-taught, I've tattooed everywhere I could reach. Eventually, I was a decent enough tattooer to get into a studio -- with a little charm and the knowledge I'd collected myself. I was able to surround myself in the industry: seeing the worst and rubbing elbows with some of the best. So, here I am today: self made.
What inspires you as an artist?
Born this way...not really words to express. I kinda just happens in the moment -- the diversity in the world I see and feel revealed.
What kind of tattoos do you look forward to doing?
I look forward to each next collaboration that God blesses me with.
Is there a tattoo you haven't done yet that you are dying to do?
No...but to be a fly on the wall across the world in Europe, Asia, South America, or countries like Italy. To see, to feel, and experience the passion in those cultures is a dream.
