I started tattooing in Richmond Virginia.
I worked in several shops between Richmond and Virginia Beach Virginia for the next 13 or so years.
In 2011 I found my way to the Live Music Capital of the World- Austin, Texas. I am now working at True Blue Tattoo. http://www.truebluetattoo.com/
I look forward to working with you to create your piece of living art. Make an appointment by clicking here.
If you’d like to see where all my work has been published, go here.
See you soon!

All of these photographs are available in limited quantities.
If you would like to purchase any of these photographs please feel free to contact me. As of right now the only way to purchase these is through this website and/or through myself if you catch me when I am selling them at art shows or conventions etc..
I have many more awesome photographs that I will be adding as I have time and as the collection grows. So, feel free to visit as often as you can.
Please contact me about sizes, prices, framing and shipping options.

























Here are a few of the Magazines in which I’ve had articles written about my work.
Some things to consider when making an appointment.
Your tattoo generally starts being worked on long before needle touches skin. From conceptualizing the tattoo, to research, to the time spent sketching and drawing many hours can be spent creating your design.
The more homework you do about your tattoo the easier it will be for me to realize and understand what you have in your mind.
There is a deposit required for all tattoo appointments. The amount of that deposit will be determined by the extent of the project. The amount of the deposit will be deducted from the cost of the final session of the tattoo.
It is your responsibility to notify me 48 hours in advance if you will not be able to make your appointment. I will also try to give you the same respect on my end if I need to cancel for some reason. No call, no show is simply unacceptable.
The deposit is non-refundable and will go toward compensation for the conceptualization and design hours if for some reason you cannot complete the project.
Please note that there may be a waiting list to be tattooed by me. Please check my Itinerary to see when and where I am travelling, as I may be travelling near you in the future.
