So while we were working steady at the Milan Convention, an Italian gentleman approached my booth. He had a few questions about what to look for in buying a good machine and so I gave him a few pointers that would help him steer clear of those machine building hacks out there. After talking for a bit he showed me this wonderfully clean color piece on his leg, then he proceeded to tell us that he tattooed this on himself! I was very impressed, but that’s not all. As if he hadn’t impressed all of us enough, he went ahead and blew our minds by informing us that he has been tattooing a YEAR. That is right ladies and gentleman, ONE YEAR. His name is Stefano Prati, remember it. Do I need to work harder? Yes. If there is tattooers in this day and age doing things like that after a year then I definitely need to remind myself how lucky I am that I came into this when I did, otherwise I probably wouldn’t have been able to keep up. I will go back to Costa Mesa humbled and ready to work.
