WHERE HAVE I BEEN THE LAST 17YRS. MAN,IF I KNEW ABOUT THIS FORUM BACK THEN MY LIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN ALOT EASIER.
FIRST, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I’M INDEPENDENT,IN EVERYTHING I SAY,DO & THINK AND LAY ON SKIN SO IF YOU DON’T LIKE ME FOR THAT,OH WELL.
I HATE THE WORD “SCRATCHERS” “HACKERS” OR “WANNABES”.
IF PEOPLE & ARTIST NEVER TRIED TO BE SELF TAUGHT WE WOULD NOT HAVE GREATS LIKE “PAUL BOOTH” ,”SAGE”,OR EVEN “SAILOR JERRY” FOR THAT MATTER WHERE THEIR ART STANDS THE TEST OF TIME.BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER & I’VE ALREADY SEEN SOME BAD (YOU KNOW) ARTIST ON THIS FORUM.
NOW,WITH THAT OFF MY CHEST.I ALSO RESPECT THE PEOPLE THAT HAD TO PUT IN WORK @ SHOPS FOR FREE & PAY TO GET APPRENTICESHIPS IT JUST NEVER WAS THE RIGHT DEAL FOR ME.TO EACH THEIR OWN I GUESS.
I LOVE THIS FORUM BECAUSE IT’S ABOUT THE WAY I TRIED TO LIVE MY LIFE & SHOP THE LAST 15 YRS. THE LOVE OF ART & WAYS TO DO IT RIGHT & KEEP OTHERS & YOURSELF SAFE AND DOING SO, THAT OTHERS PASSED DOWN TO ME i GAVE THE KNOWLEDGE TO OTHERS THAT WERE WILLING TO LEARN & HAD THE DRIVE & SKILL. I NEVER CHARGED 1 PERSON I APPRENTICED, JUST THE SHOP SUPPLIES THEY NEEDED TO LEARN.
I’M 33 NOW I STARTED WHEN I 16 GETTING TATTOOED & TATTOOING & NEVER WANT TO GIVE IT UP,BUT A MEDICAL SITUATION MAY FORCE ME TO. SUCH IS LIFE………
NEVER STOP DOING WHAT YOU LOVE,IT’S THE GREATEST JOB IN THE WORLD.YOU MEET GREAT PEOPLE & CHANGE THEIR LIFE FOREVER! JUST THINK OF EVERY TATTOO YOU HAVE, & EVERY PERSON,PLACE YOU WERE AT & WHEN YOU GOT IT.
TATTOOS IN MY OPINION IS THE GREATEST ART FORM THERE EVER HAS BEEN AND EVER WILL BE.
