What about me? What I do? Art, mostly. I was one of those kids who drew pictures in his math book in school. I paint. I draw. I do digital art. Professionally? I tattoo. I started tattooing in Kansas City in 1991. Before that I was a starving artist, freelancing, airbrush work, signs, bike tanks, murals, whatever I could make a few bucks on.I toured the American tattoo circuit pretty heavily from '92-'97 or so. I'm honored to have received over 60 awards for my work, had the opportunity to sit on judging panels, even given a few seminars way back when! As well, my work has been published in most major American tattoo magazine titles, and I've had some great feature articles in Tattoo and Savage magazines. The convention circuit and the whole "glory game" was great fun for a while, but the past few years I've really faded back and just stay put, working at "Show Me Skin Art" outside of a nice military post in the midwest. I keep pretty booked up, and enjoy working on large ongoing projects on some really great folks.I've got a very cool wife, and a beautiful little girl. I work at a fun tattoo shop, with my brother, who is also very cool.My old friend Victor Whitmill just recently moved back to Missouri and is now a part of the crew at Show Me Skin Art as well!I'm grateful for the good fortune, health, happiness, and great friends I enjoy in my life. =)---More about me?
