I'm a tattoo artist and this is my story
I've always been into art since I was a kid. High school is when I really worked hard at preparing my portfolio for the art schools. I got accepted, but, Instead became a legal secretary working in New York. I got paid well but... something was missing. I went and got my first tattoo. I was intrigued, wondering "why haven't I thought to try this as an art medium?" So, I did. I tattooed my first skull and crossbones and I was hooked. After some practice and time I quit the full-time job and dove right into tattooing. I may not drive the Mercedes anymore but I couldn't be happier waking up everyday knowing my job is bad ass, I can wear what I want, wake up late and I get paid to paint on people all day. That's priceless!
