DIKKE DENNIS MY SPIRITUAL LEADER

Many years ago I had the great pleasure of working in the Holiest of cities for 2 years , Amsterdam . Living in the Red light district on a canal and working in one of the cities famous Tattoo Shops was an experience I can tell you . I have a special place in my heart for the Dutch . For those years I worked along side the one and only Dikke Dennis , or simply Fat Dennis . It was definatlly a Rock and Roll shop with Dennis singing guest vocals in Peter Pan Speed Rock , I went to many gigs and festivals and had the time of my life , by day and night . Most definatly the craziest Tattoo shop I have had the pleasure of working in . If you fancy a laugh you tube the big man. Ik How Van Holland !!!!

TATTOOS DOWNUNDER ARTICLE

I have an article in the latest edition of Tattoos Downunder on the shelves now.
It is a recount of a trip I had late last year to Tokyo with fellow Tattoo artists from the world over , in search of inspiration. I hope you enjoy the read. It will also be uploaded into my Media section.
