I’ve always been artist ever since I was a child. Growing up I knew I wanted to do something with art, just never really what exactly. I was going to college for a fine art degree when I realized it would be extremely difficult to make a living in the fine art world and I didn’t want to become an animator just to pay the bills. After some research I found several tattoos in a style that looked like the oil paintings I loved to study and I realized that was a possibility. Tattoos doesn't have to be any specific style and realized there is so much art in this craft.
After my apprenticeship, I left Texas briefly to travel and tattoo in a couple of states. I’ve previously lived and tattooed in Colorado and Arizona before returning home to Texas where I am currently located.
My preferred style of tattooing is a painterly twist on color realism.
I am currently located at Dark Age Tattoo - Private Studio
