Well, the blog begins and I should probably start with a brief outline of who I am and what exactly this blog is about! So, I'm 21 years old and have recently moved to London to get myself an education, going pretty well so far living in the smog. However, my real love lies with tattoo art. This is pretty evident when you consider I spent every last penny of my loan to pay for my tattoos (It's good to have my priorities all in order!). The thing I find hugely irritating about being in London is being surrounded by tattoo parlours but not actually working in one. I guess that's because tattooing has become a 'dream' career for thousands of people my age as it is a pretty 'rock star' lifestyle. But I'm not one of those 'follow the crowd' sheep. So I'm doing this blog to prove my passion for tattooing is not just a fashionable one. I have a genuine love for every element of tattoo culture, resulting in an insatiable thirst to enhance my knowledge of the history of tattoos and improve my own work, spending every spare minute putting pencil to paper. If i am completely honest, there is a secret agenda for this blog. Unfortunately many people still think of tattooing as a 'thugish' and talentless culture, and this does nothing short of infuriate me! So I'm here to set that wonky record straight!
Please please please feel free to leave tips and comments on how to improve my work, everything is appreciated!
Enjoy :)
