What year did you start tattooing?
Just after the beginning of the Clone Wars, on Tattooine (naturally).
Who influenced your tattooing and/or art the most?
The sun. It lights up my day.
Where did you learn how to tattoo?
I’ve been tattooing for over a decade now – and I am still learning. When I know it all I can answer this question.
What style of tattooing do you enjoy the most?
I like to do tattoos – picking one style as a favorite is really limiting as far as I’m concerned. I like fun tattoos , color , black and grey – detail , everything
What was the very fist tattoo you’ve done and received?
The kanji for ‘eternity/forever’ on my lower leg. I did it in order to learn how to use a tattoo machine. It’s alright but half of it is gone due to shinners.
Why do you enjoy tattooing?
I could say meeting new people , having fun , the honor of having someone let me mark them for life , or getting to draw for a living but really it’s all about time and freedom. I’m a huge fan of both so it works out great.
If i weren’t a tattoo artist, i would be?
A scruffy nerfherder.
Hobbies outside of work?
I’ve been skateboarding longer than most of my clients have been alive. In fact – if I’m not at work then I’m out skating. I could be out skating right now as you read this – even if it’s the middle of the night. I like to paint , hang with my cat , collect kung-fu movies and cartoons , and play Skate 3 when it’s raining.
