My Tattoo History
First tattoo at age: 19 I have more than 10 tattoos I have more than 10 piercings I started getting tattoos: It was December of 1991. At the time I just wanted to know what it was like to get tattooed. Now, it's a way of life. An obligation to my trade. I look at it as a great way of self expression. Letting the inside show on the outside.
My Tattoo Artist Resume
I started tattooing: In 1992 at age 20 I like tattooing: Never pictured myself tattooing, but life leads us in all sorts of crazy directions. I am, primarily, a fantasy artist. I like the freedom to be able to create without boundary or limitation of logic. I always liked the idea of tattoos but my interest really peaked around 1990 or so. I recieved my first at the very tail end of '91 and by February of '92 I was on my way to becoming a tattoo artist. :) Its been a rocky road and I've been really fortunate to have come as far as I have...
Yes, fantasy art is my first love, but I enjoy working on many different subjects including nature and wildlife. :) I have fun with my work and am constantly working to improve my art. I tend to be my own worst critic, but I believe that keeps me moving forward creatively. :) Awards I've Won: Third Place Tribal- Down East Tattoo Convention- ME, Year 2000

Who I would like to be tattooed by:
Currently, I have a piece in progress from Myke Maldonado.
I like to figure out what it is that I want first, and then search out an artist. I have a lot of different ideas. I suppose, I'll just sort of figure it out as I go along. I'm in no hurry. :)
