| Was wondering if anyone knew of any artist specializing in Traditional / Neo Japanese tattoos around D.C. or even the east coast. I'm looking for a full back & sleeves ... Horiyoshi / Horitoshi styles. |

| Off the top of my head, the 2 I know and would recommend for that much work would be Dave Fox in Philly and Dana Helmuth in Fenwick Island. |

Is Brian Bruno still in the area? He does good neo-Japanese stuff. |

I like Mike Beckerich - also at King's Avenue. Matt Lukesh in NJ is good also. He doesn't specialize in Japanese stuff, but he does quite a bit of it and he's been doing some really nice stuff imho.

| I still think Dana Helmuth is the best in the VA/DC area in Japanese. |
