It all started when...

I have a background in traditional art and design, but over the years I have become very interested in learning more about Tattooing. Recently with friend admitted that it was one of my job fantasies to be a tattoo artist. They jokingly tried to "make my dream come true" and let me draw pictures on them and I immediately got lost in my own world... it was amazing! 

I have done some research about it and it really seems that working with someone is the best way to connect to the art, history, business and tradition of tattooing. I wanted to explore this art form and industry with Taiom. I felt drawn to his work and style for it's non-traditonal and fine art qualities and believed that he would be open to more non-tradition styles of art for tattooing.
