Eddie Oakes

I have been tattooing now for roughly 13 years and hope to continue to do so for a long time. For the most part I am a fan of old school American and Japaneses style tattooing to include a deep rooted respect for those tattooist that came before. I hold in high regard, much of the attitudes and opinions these people that paved the way for the rest of us displayed on a number of topics related to this industry. As a result, I find myself often times looking to the past for guidance and inspiration. I draw influence from a number of different source and styles though and I'm comfortable working in many different ways to achieve my clients goals. I look forward to an opportunity to work for you.
