Ace Tattoo - About

I once used to build stages and put up lighting rigs and sound rigs for people like U2, the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Bryan Adams, Michael Jackson, and many other such people, now some may say they saw the light, but I say that I've seen the error of my ways and seen the ink.

I got into Tattooing totally by accident, I was in a friends tattoo studio in Oberhausen Germany and we had all been on a bit of a celebration the night before, and my mate Rene was doing a tribal piece on this guy when he had a bit of a funny turn, he managed to finish the outline but he was in a bad way, and asked the guy if he could finish it at a later date, but the guy said he was going on holiday and needed it done then.

So they both agreed to let me fill in the colour, news to me though coz my German is very limited, so off I went and finished it, and I done so well according to Rene, that he asked me if I wanted to try some outlining on a simple tribal design, ok I said just as long as the punter knows the score, so I did and after that he recommended that I bought some machines and start tattooing, so I did and spent the next 6 months working in his studio, and after spells in various other studios I decided it was time to come home, and bring with me what I've seen and learned from around the world, so here I am.
