Out of curiosity, what does a really good tattoo artist make?

I know a guy who makes over 100,000 a year and charges $180 an hour.

They're more than 400 bucks though :/

Most people spend more than that on a bong or oil rig, this is cooler..

If you can afford them now, they still exist. I worked on their online store last year and they still think they're pretty relevant.

They are having a going out of business again sale.

Lovely. You must really like Van Gogh! What are your inspirations?
matter472 • 3 points •
Thank you. Growing up my father was a professional painter and did very Andrew Wyeth type watercolors and acrylic paintings. I never really studied art or got into the history but have been influenced by, Alphonse Mucha, 60s rock art, pin striping, traditional tattoos, 80s graffiti a bit of Van Gogh but not as much as one would think and a lot of “experimentation” as a young lad. Really I just want my art to captivate you without too much going on, like a maze or puzzle of sorts.
Edit: and Bob Ross

Good one /u/matter472. Haven't thought about that in a while!! For some reason the Sardo thing just popped in my head. I'm a developer, I'm 34, and then out of nowhere. Boom. Sardo.
Edit: Formatting.

I’m 34 as well but have recently watched all 6 seasons again. It was definitely worth it.

Its on Amazon Prime right? I just saw Eerie Indiana is on there now, and I nearly lost it.
matter472 • 2 points •
Yeah it’s able to be purchased on prime but I ordered a dvd box set a while back, it was definitely some bootleg version though.

Thanks! It was really fun to do, and I really love your style, and this piece especially.
matter472 • 2 points •
Thank you it means a lot to me, check out my website matterartstudio.com if you haven’t. There is a time lapse there
AmaiRose • 2 points •
Thanks for the link. That wasn't up the last time I checked out your website, but it was super cool to watch you work. Building up from black canvas makes a lot of sense, and I love that you pull the background pattern out of your brain as you work. That is not a skill I have, so it's something I really admire.
I look forward to seeing new pieces as they come up. Your work is so distinctive and engaging.

Thanks so much. It means a lot to me that I can inspire people. Cheers
