About Clients
Tattooing is an art form, but it is also a business and tattoos are done for the clients. I usually never turn people away, as long as they act like normal human beings. It rarely happens that a person can’t meet my minimalistic standards, but then I don’t work with that person anymore and that is it.
As far as age goes, anybody between 16 and 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or a guardian, I am very mindful of that.
I also always try to give good advice about the motif and the placement of the tattoo, but at the end, that is a client’s decision and a client has to live with that decision, not me.
I love to work with people who are open for communication and understand that my advice about design changes and placement is there to help them have a great tattoo. When I click with the client, and if we manage to form a good relationship during the process, the results are unforgettable in many ways.
As a tattoo artist I meet allot of people, some just pass through my studio, in some I get disappointed and some stay friends for life. I had a great luck in my life to meet allot of great people that today I call friends.

Just a thought, would you mind writing a blog about your creative process? Since people ask so much :)

I think every tattoo artist would like to do only his/hers designs, but in reality your job is to make your client happy, I try as much and hard as i can to avoid doing 1-1 other peoples designs, i use clients references but i try to make it in a way that i think its also good, cause in the end its my name on the line. So what I´m tying to say is that in the end it is a client choice.

Do you only make original artworks or do you do work from clients source as well?

It's same with any form of art... People think that making art is easy and that they have the right to "know better" than the artist... Meh...

One design done by 4 different people the all 4 will be different in some way or another.. if you don´t trust your artist don´t sit in his chair...easy as that, for a good tattoo it must be a collaboration.. one time a guy asked me to convince him to make tattoo with me, to explain him why should he get a tattoo from me... and i told him that i´m not going to do that, that he should look at my work, my tattoos, drawings, designs and if he likes what i do he can come and we can make a tattoo together, i will do everything in my power and best to my abilities to make what he wants and nothing other than that i can´t promisse. That is how i work.

Don't you hate it when people can't recognize good advice when it's staring them in the face?
I understand that some people know what they want and the tattoo artist is there just to make their wish a reality, but personally I like it when artists give a tattoo their personal touch.
I'm not that big of a tattoo freak (I only have three relatively small tattoos), but each one I did I got by describing what I wanted and then letting the artist make his own interpretation of the picture I described. To me, that makes the tattoo more personal... and I haven't been disappointed so far

No its ok when you message two weeks in front, we will make something so it works out. When you come such a long way i can even stay longer in the shop, so no worries we will make it :D
