PascalDBras Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 My name is Pascal. I started my apprenticeship a year ago at age 25 with a good friend and well respected tattoo artist, but due to unforeseen circumstances he was unable to continue my training. For a fresh start and to show respect by not working in another shop nearby I recently moved to melbourne and enrolled in creative arts at university. I am spending some time building my skills and a strong portfolio before I approach quality shops here to complete my training in ideally an old school and traditional apprenticeship like the one I started. I really appreciate the last sparrow interviews for the insight into the journey many established artists have undertaken, and a perspective on how the industry has changed in the last few decades. It's humbling, frightening, and inspiring, and I look forward to learning more. Thank you tatB and Brock Varty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PascalDBras Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Thanks man. There's so many tattooists and shops these days, but I want to try to be around the ones maintaining traditions and raising the bar tatB, Guero and Brock Varty 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
