Tattoo Artist Experts!
Maud Wagner
Maud Wagner was a circus performer and most importantly is the first known female tattoo artist in America. Despite the tattoo machine already being invented, she and her husband preferred to do tattoos hand poked. They are said to have introduced the art of tattooing to areas away from the coasts.
Alex Strangler
Alex Strangler is an artist from Los Angeles and she specializes in colorful, cute tattoos. Her work is bold and colorful and to me shows that anybody can be a great tattoo artist while staying true to themselves and their own art style.
Kat Von D
Kat Von D is an American tattoo artist located in Hollywood,CA. She is one of the most well known tattoo artists, which is inspiring to me because it's mostly seen as a "males only" profession. Her tattoo portraits are amazingly realistic , and the amount of detail she puts into her work is inspiring.
