Tattoo Like a Painter | James Hall | EP 265

The traditional tattoo approach of lining, shading and coloring (in that order) never appealed much to James Hall (or Jake for that matter). James has spent the majority of his tattoo career moonlighting as an oil painter and it definitely comes across in his tattoo work. In today’s episode we talk about the value of working in other mediums, James’ annual art show focused on encouraging tattoo artists to pick up a paint brush and how to create a studio environment that attracts the clientele you are looking for. Tons of great nuggets in this episode.
