O Tattoo Convention, the fine art of tattooing is still in the artists' hands, right alongside their buzzing needles. The term artists' convention gets thrown around a lot, but it wasn't until the San Jose Tattoo Convention that I got a clear concept of what it means. For one thing, it is the philosophy of the convention to treat every artist in attendance equally, and the shop posters that hung from the ceiling and walls featured every shop on the bill, not only the best known shops. As I...

You are one of that rare breed, someone doing an old-fashioned apprenticeship. Hon did that come about Yeah, apprenticeships arc few and far between. I was looking for someone to give me some honest feedback on the artwork I was doing. I was a big fan of Phil's w ork so I sent him some paintings. He would critique them and tell me when they were shit. He didn't give me any information as such but he would say things like 'You don't want to be using that type of paper' and I would go away and...
