About Me



My grandfather's name is Art. My grandmother's bloodline is Samurai. Nine separate works of ink on my body + a sleeve, + a rib piece in progress. Underlying themes of the right side of my body are steeped in Wabi-Sabi, Zen, and sound. The left half is oriented with life, death, and love. Three bands concerning ink-- Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, and Blonde Redhead.

    Reading. Weaponry. Bicycle. MMA. Skate. Surf/Snow. Travel. Food
