I have been tattooing for over three years now and I am still learning everyday. I have been an artist all my life and always saw myself having a career in art. I am 32 years old and have a bachelors degree in illustration, but I can say now that I love tattooing more than any other type of art form I have done. I began tattooing at a street shop and became bored with the same flash work being done and no one to learn from. I was lucky enough to get a shot at working for Liquid Courage in August of 08. I am now enjoying every minute of my life as an artist. This is how it should be. All original art, and working with the most creative people around.
My influences are very illustration oriented, comic books, and album cover art, I also love everything else from fine art to sculpture. I enjoy drawing the human figure the most but have an over all love for drawing anything and everything in general. In tattooing I have done a large variety of styles from portrait work to traditional and have fallen in love with all the different styles and hybrids of ways to design a tattoo. I am always looking forward to the next challenge.
