MAY I BELIEVE... ????

About Me


After 2 or 3 previous lives, I began a brand new one by travelling and getting tattoos... I started tattoing in 1994 with pure excitement and delight, without believing I could succeed in turning this true passion a full time job. And, how amazing, and thanx to people who trusted me, now it is !!! I already get back to my former loves, aka painting, drawing, sculpting, doing million stuffs with my little hands, and try now to find time enough to do all the things I would like to... Long time involved in alternative and indie french scene (old good times, guyz, I probably could be your mother), I stopped wasting time singing in talented but improbable bands ( lot of fun but hard for neighbours and friends ears) I proceed tattoing musicians, friends and new people around me and on the road for a while.
This century you can also reach me at ARNO TATTOO (Reims)
I will be happy to draw something special for your skin - or your wall... Original works are more fun, interesting, relishing, to think about, tattoo,wear and live with......

My Interests

tattoos,arts (painting-books-music-and-so-on), good food and wine with friends, having fun, making things, my son.
