Feb 1st 2010

I’ve been pressing the flesh since 1993 when I began a reluctant apprenticeship under Danny Fowler in Roanoke, Va. Armed with a formal art education and an empty pocket, I had to make a choice: air brush t-shirts forever or eat. After answering a help wanted sign, I signed on with Danny at Ancient Art.

Seventeen years, over 40 awards and a three quarter sleeve of my own later, I’ve set off on a new course in a different location.

Cherry Bomb is the beginning of the next chapter in my tattooing career and I’m excited about the new opportunities that have opened up for me. I have completed various custom paint jobs on cycle tanks and helmets, but I am first and foremost a tattoo artist. My work is diverse ranging from tribal to old-school to permanent cosmetics (eyebrows and eyeliner). I have continued to pursue realism in my own work, whether its color or black and grey, and I relish the challenge of portraiture.

My own personal ink collection includes a patriotic piece by Brian Kennedy, influenced in part by my grandfather who served in WWII, and the latest acquisition of several bumblebees on my lower leg, courtesy of artist Rodney Raines.

I'm still an avid airbrush artist; some of my work hangs in the Tattoo Art Studio in Albuquerque, owned by Brian Everett and friends. If you think I can help you out with your latest tattoo or airbrush project then please give me a call on 540-871-0917 or simply call the shop 540-489-3488
