About Me

My name: Russell Thomas Hickman. Born and raised in Wichita Falls, TX. Lived in Atlanta for a touch, Seaside, FL for a summer, Tampa, FL for a little while, went to college at Belmont University in Nashville, TN and still consider that my true home. Now: I am an apprentice at Quest Tattoo Parlor in Nashville under Jason Smith. I'm just a normal dude that thinks that there is a forgiveness and a grace out there that surpasses any of our understanding. I like art, the art of tattooing, and the art of tattooing being on my body...haha. I think that life should be spent barefoot or in sandals more than it is not. I own a Boxer named Bodhi Sapha and a Chihuahua named Jake and I'm married to the woman of my dreams...Jill. Keep focused, be creative, have a smile on your face, breathe fresh air from time to time and believe in something. Thanks for reading, now go do something to improve your life!
