If you're watching please, first, thank you. Second, please pause at 8:58, especially so if you're from or have lived in Nashville. I made this Photoshop for us.
it is super refreshing to see someone so successful in life (outside of tattooing and the arts) with a lot of great tattoo work I love it man !
@@ronp12412 Thank you! Seriously, that was super, super kind. I really appreciate it.
Thank You for the Video link! Been loving this, this is the content I love!
Amazing work man! It all looks incredible!
It’s also super refreshing to watch one of these were the person isn’t dunking on themselves saying how much they hate a lot of the work ❤️
Can’t wait till the other sleeve is done and you make another 🔥
Thank you!!!
Wow! I'm from Clarksville and graduated from APSU. Now I live in Michigan! I just stumbled upon your video while researching American Traditional tattoos because I started my right arm sleeve in March 2022. (I have 4 tattoos on my arm so far and a total of 9 tattoos on my body.)
So funny that I found your channel and you were in Clarksville and Michigan!
Love your tattoos! And I also love that you're in academics and collect tattoos! Very cool! ✌🏾💜
You have a great collection! These are my favorite type of tattoos to see🖤
Thank you!!!
I also have two tattoos from Henry. Great to see traditional on RUclips
Henry is the best. I have two original paintings by him, a few prints, and two tattoos, but I need to get to Philadelphia at some point to do my chest. Also, thank you for watching!
This was so cool to hear you talk about your tattoo journey and all the designs. I am a big fan of the American traditional style so this was really inspiring, thanks for being so open and honest! Also that floral wrist cuff is stunning such a flawless concept and its a really striking image.
Thank you! I really appreciate it. And 100% Becca Lerner's work is impeccable. I just got a second tattoo from here...planning a third for 2022.
@@UXmatt Of course! Quick question were the flowers inspired by anything in particular? Because idk if you have seen the show but they look just like the white lotus from Avatar the Last Airbender?
@@josephvarela1888 They weren’t inspired by anything in particular. But I do love Avatar (trying to get my GF to watch it…it’s so good)
Amazing collection you got there man, some really cool and unique pieces! Would be super interested to see updates and progress in the future!
Thank you!!! I just got my second one from Becca Lerner last week-ish.
“I’m absolutely broke but I am absolutely happy”
Man I can relate to that! ❤️
Murray Sells is awesome!!! I did a guest at Grace and Glory and it was really fun. I was lucky enough to get a tattoo from Murray
Nate Stephens has been exclusively building my traditional sleeve! He’s the best artist I’ve ever worked with!
He’s great and super a nice guy. I’m hoping to make it back Colorado sometime soon. I want another piece by Nate + a few things from folks at Til Death Denver + Cori James’ new shop.
Amazing art work. ☮️✌️
Very interesting, thanks!
Video is really well done; nice tattoos
Thank you!!!
incredible tattoos man. i too love American traditional tattoos. they are the best.
Thank you! Totally, agree. I love that they are tattoos that look like tattoos (or at least what I think of...when I picture tattoos).
@@UXmatt yeah man, i feel the same way. tattoos that look like tattoos.
I’m having the hardest time with Instagram making me think realism is the most incredible tattooing available. Then I got a decent sized expensive realism piece and when it’s fresh it’s breathtaking but as it’s healed it’s not very bold and strong and it has a lot of grey which makes it less strong. I’m new to tattoos this was my first tattoo and now I’m really starting to understand why traditional tattoos are so good. Do you have any experience with realism vs traditional??
@@tomlit6487 Thanks for watching. I only have traditional tattoos (part of my background is in folk art, so it appealed to me immediately). My partner has a few tattoos that are non-traditional, mostly black and grey, but they all have super heavy line work. So, I can't speak to realism vs traditional from personal experience, but I think (as a non-artist) that it all comes down to the structure that a heavy, bold outline provides that lends longevity and clarity. It seems to function like an armature or frame that holds everything together.
@@UXmatt thanks 😊 so much for your response you and your partner seem so cool 😎. Ya I agree with you that bold traditional is the way to go there’s something about it that draws me in more than realism. How has your color held up over the years?? Has it faded the same as black??
Safehouse is great! Got two from them and they’re amazing
Yessir
more of a traditional / neo traditional mix but you have some nice tattoos man. would enjoy doing all those, im sure you're a cool client to work with.
Epic
I come back to this video a lot. Great video man, inspiring work on you! Updated vid???
Thank you! I just got a new camera (and a bunch of tattoos over the last year), so I’m going to do a update right after my next tattoo (with Teide of all people)
@@UXmatt I'm so excited to see it. You've inspired me to start my american trad journey!
I love your tats, great taste man.. do u know the brand of the t shirt youre wearing? Fits great
Thank you! I'm pretty sure the brand is Pair of Thieves (or something like that) from Target. They come in two-packs and are super soft.
I’m a big fan of traditional, I have a few but my questions is can you keep trad tats black and grey/white? I like a little bit of color here n there but is there anything wrong with getting trad tats in black and grey/white?
Yeah, there are a lot of artists who primarily tattoo in black/grey with some white highlights, etc. in the traditional space/genre. It's all good. For example, @blackbearwhiskey does a lot of incredible work primarily in black/grey, but he does do color as well. He has a private studio in GA. Incredible stuff.
I would say some of your tattoos might fall under the “neo-traditional” category as well! I’m the same way, while most of mine could be seen as American traditional they do have some neo traditional elements as well :)
100% agree
I was hoping you go into detail on why you got each tattoos. Your tattoos came out good, but usually there is meaning behind each one instead of just getting ones that look cool.
Thanks for watching! None of my tattoos really have much meaning, to be honest. Not the ones that I covered in this video at least (I've gotten quite a few new one as of late - some of them have meaning, mostly pet portraits). But, for me at least, it's mostly just I want a tattoo of something that I think looks aesthetically pleasing or interesting.
All I am covered in is black ink traditional...full sleeves, packed with bad luck, with old school star and dot filler. Serenity prayer on other forearm, N/A symbol then packed with old school. Back of my neck, I did my legs. If anyone reads this, and are in Toronto, swing by Hydra on Danforth. Much love
Dude I got a sailor Jerry butterfly on my sleeve when I was in Portland too lol
But a different design from the one you have
Rad!
Ironically I’m schedule to get a vase on my right bicep 😮
We’ll be bicep buddies.
If you’re still in Tennessee, check out some tattoos by Nick Moran at Riverside Tattoo in Knoxville. He and I are working on finishing a sleeve on my left arm and I believe he does amazing work.
I'm in Michigan now, BUT I just added Moran on IG. Looks like he's coming to Detroit in March this year....might be able to do something. Thanks for watching and for the recommendation!
@@UXmatt If you do see him please tell him that Gavin sent you! You won’t regret it
im jealous i wanna get tattooed by becca lerner! she does the best girl heads in the game!! i wish she was in cali/:
Agreed. She's rad. I booked an appointment with her today for an ornamental collar in April.
@@UXmatt nice i just booked to get a portrait done in may it will be my only non traditional tattoo im excited
Sheeesh
Is that the bee Amber's dog stepped on?
I really like your right arm wrist cuff
Thank you! Becca Lerner did one (she just did a chest/neck collar for me that I love) and Murray Sell did the other arm. They're both incredible people.
4:48 never seen an 8 legged fly
It’s a Sailor Jerry design. Might not be a fly, per se.
@@UXmatt definitely looks cool
@@machoprotegido5607 Thanks!
No tattoo oliver peck
Studing for appreciate this tattoo are Money fool
I have no clue what you're trying to communicate?
@@UXmatt studying to get these tattoos is a waste of money
@@Jhonny15512 Cool opinion.
@@UXmatt i dont like yours tattoo , sorry
@@Jhonny15512 Okay
Imagine referring to yourself as a doctor when you’re an “expert” in communications, one of the most useless degrees someone can get.
Thanks for your opinion
