About Me

I have been in the industry for almost 16 years now. it all started in spartanburg, s.c. where i grew up drawing as a way of escape. that was until my uncle came home from prison with a star tattoo. next thing you know i was writing a report on a career in art titled "tattooist" which was still illigal in s.c. at the time. I got an" F" in class! you should see their reactions now when i go back home. wondering where the name came from? just ask my Dad, at 6'4" and 220lbs. now you can find me at ACE CUSTOM TATTOO in charlotte nc. Rodney Raines is the shop owner and great tattoo artist. check out our web site-www.acecustomtattoo.com

My Interests

i have work from artist all over the world. there is no such thing as too far to travel when it comes to tattooing. i have been to switzerland to study under Filip Leu and get tattooed. while there i hung out with Tin Tin. also i have work from Yellow Blaze Tattoo in Yocahoma. i am always painting, weather it is for an art show or a commisioned piece. i also do furniture designs for a company in high point. so, as you can tell i am a serious collector and caters to a serious clientel.
