With the history of tattooing beginning over 5000 years ago, to this day, it is still as diverse a topic as the people who wear them.
The first electronic tattoo machine was invented in 1890 by the American tattoo artist Samuel O’Reilly, this gave birth to the new era of tattooing.
After much time the popularity of tattoo has gained and now, one can find a tattoo's as fashion symbol's rather than a simple or primitive marks.
Tattoo artist's are now admired for their creativity and differing styles, and yet much of there work can only be appreciated if you have the honour to meet the individual who Adorne's their creativity...
Personally I have always had a huge love of tattoo's yet never been brave enough or even had the slightest desire to imprint my body with someone else's pictures! Maybe if I were the Tattoo Artist thing would have been different.... Hmmm now that's a thought!
My thoughts have been inspired by the 'Art Fusion Experiment' which began on 2002 and is a collaboration of tattoo artist from around the world who get together to team build and generate creative flow on canvas and paper rather than skin!! Amazing stuff, enjoy the link x
