Hero Tattoo

I can't remember where I came across this guy's work, but I keep coming back to it. My favourite tattooers aren't generally specialists. They are the ones that can work in any style, and still make it look like their own. I think that Jeff fits into this category.

Jeff does real nice work..The shop is kind of out of the way,off of the highway in an industrial area.The building looks like an airport hanger.They just legalized tattooing down there a few years ago,and most of the shops are in industrial areas.Hero is the best shop down there.

is David Bruehl a really recognized artist? i've seen Shawn mention him on here, and while i wouldn't get some of the stuff he tattoos tattooed on me personally, i still like his work, especially his birds. i just haven't heard many people talk about him on here or in person.

Tattoos and Art by David Bruehl

Funny thing about David-

He went to SCAD with Adam Hathorn (Honkeykong) from Guru Andrew Johnson-Lalley from Body Graphics. So weird that within a year of each other they all attended the same school and all became tattooers.

i do like franks work a lot, his tattoos continue to impress me everytime he guests at FST. i love both the tattoos above as well as many others he is too shy to post.

ps. that giant lined leaf behind the hare's head is a fraction of a super awesome chad koeplinger backpiece, panther and roses, it reaches the back of the girls thighs and i can't wait to see it finsihed

Ron Henry Wells (hedid a hand of mysteries on me)...i think you guys know if him but people esp in New England really need to learn whats up.

Ollie Street by Street, Blog by Blog. he doesn't post a lot of his tattoos since he is picky and is lazy about his blog. But the guy is simple, clean and tattoos damn well. I enjoy his style. He did a woman face on me that's IMO close to perfect.

Horimatsu

Matti Sedholm aka Horimatsu is a dark horse. From sweden he does Traditional Japanese tattoos. Tebori. Matti is a great tattoo artist who REALLY studies Japanese history, culture, Ukiyo-e, zen and everything else surrounding Japan. He has been for years one of my favorite tattoo artists.

I'm relatively new to the forum and the tattoo world but I definitely think that Frank Carter deserves recognition. I've got three tattoos done by him and couldn't be happier with them. One of the tattoos was a walk in done about a month ago which he stayed late to finish which I thought was really cool. He's a good guy who does awesome tattoos and couldn't recommend him enough. Also Miles at Frith Street Tattoo is an amazing artist, got my first tattoo from him and it's incredible. He can do any style and has a ton of cool stories about tattooing and travelling. Sorry about the quality of some of the pictures, I'm no photographer.
