Looking for artist experienced in ASIAN body suits

6 messages · last activity 6/26/2006

I am looking for an artist in the US who has a lot of experience with Asian tatttoo's ... looking for a full back-piece that will involve two cover-ups ... have all the "pieces" picked out and ready to start. Thanks for any recommendations ...I am willing to travel in the US for the sessions.
Dana Helmuth in Salisbury MD... www.solidstatetattoo.com He does wonderful traditional japanese tattooing, and on his website has a pic of a full back body suit. He's definitely worth looking into. I will be going to him for my tattoo. Happy Hunting! Dana Z
Dana is excellent, there is also a gentleman named Shige from Japan that occasionally guest spots at Paul Booths in NYC. His website is www.yellowblaze.net, prepare to be blown away.
Shige and Dana Helmuth are both great artists and also the two I would have chosen, I think Shige may be a bit more of a traditionalist but either one will do a bang up job!!!...TAz
Shige's work is exactly what I am looking for ... hopefully he will be visiting the US soon ... Jason
