About Me


Inkedtalk.com is a blog about tattoos - from tattoo artists to shops to celebrity tattoos and tattoo trends, if it involves ink, we talk about it.
Some of our more recent articles include an interview with Shannon Walton of Color Bomb Tattoo in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a story about an unexpected change of artists mid-piece, several previews of upcoming tattoo events, and an interview with amazing photographer Lynn Allen whose work on tattooed women is going to be getting a lot of attention in the near future.
We love having our readers and Myspace friends participate in Inked Talk. Do you have a great story about one of your tattoos? Share it and we may make it a feature. Are you an artist who wishes to discuss your work? Let us know! Do you know about any upcoming tattoo events or art shows? We'll spread the news!
