While attending a nearby motorcycle show and swap meet with a family friend, it was suggested to her that she expand her love and talent of art into the tattoo world via an apprenticeship. Traditional art had been her passion, but she thought, “A career in tattooing….Why not? I am a people person, love to express my creativity through art, why not let human skin be my canvas as a means of my expression.â€Brandee, now 29, has been tattooing for 11 years.
