"Following the tattoo where it wants to take you is truly a new direction in modern tattooing! The freedom this type of tattooing represents is a key to allowing the artist’s mind to grow exponentially. This is any tattoo artist’s dream!â€

"One of the most unique and innovative approaches to freehand tattooing I've ever seen!"
Tony Terrell

"To me it seems to be a different approach in the mind of an artist, which could potentially create a product that would be radically different than anything anyone expected or has created before."
Sean Herman

"A totally bold move that can only be done well when one is a true artist that can stay focused and, thanks to many hours of experience and high skills development, can expertly express his imagination and turn these thoughts into permanent pictures no matter what the canvas is, skin or paper. Since there is no going back, once a line is made order is created out of chaos. Much like Zen Archery, the arrow lands where the mind is focused, like Electric Frankenstein sings "The Time is Now!", the tattoo world version of tightrope walking above Niagara Falls!"

"We are witnessing a time when tattoo is finally being recognized as art, not merely decoration or novelty. Stream of consciousness expression is the purest in any art form and is deservedly being applied to tattoo in this bold and creative venture.
In an industry where 'to copy' is standard, it is a pleasure to see such originality in thought and expression."

"This is definitely the next step into the future of tattooing. This will take some guts and amazing talent and Chad has both."

"It's always cool to see someone breaking new ground in an industry as old and steeped in tradition as ours. That's an extremely cool concept, to let the area/body part dictate the way the final piece comes together, I look forward to seeing what you (and others) do in the future with this technique."

"This is a very experimental and bizzarre project. It's very interesting to watch and probably even a more insane experience to receive a tattoo in this fashion. I personally would not tattoo my clients in this fashion but Chad seems to be extremely comfortable with the process."

"In my eyes, the improvisational tattoos like these are the best way to truly utilize the artist's pure style and ability to create tattoos that appear they were there at birth due to the option of working the tones over muscle tones, scars, birthmarks, skin texture, etc. I have been using techniques similar to this and find it much more satisfying."
