2004. • I admire the people that wear full sized tattoos as individuals with great discipline. They have self-control, dedication, budgeting skills and true patience... as well as speaking strongly of their self confidence & pride. This style of tattooing has already stood the test of time as well as being a style of finely framed art (ukiyo e). Due to its life long dedication it may very well be the deepest soul-touching form of art possible.” • Mobile devices: for full site navigation - be sure to click the MENU BARS ("3 Lines" found above). • Also visit my son Cameron North on Instagram: @Cameron_Tattoos
