Give us some insight into how you became a full time tattoo artist?
I started it as a hobby teaching myself using the internet as my guide and then people just started paying me for it. I definitely don’t recommend this method if you’re considering tattooing as a career. Get an apprenticeship it’s much easier and faster.
How do you like to make sure you keep progressing as an artist?
You have to care. When you stop caring, that’s when you stop progressing. I also make sure to take regular breaks from tattooing.
What style of tattoo would you say you specialise in, and why?
I’m fascinated with Japanese culture and Japanese tattoos. I also enjoy realism. It keeps me balanced, well rounded and challenged.
