The Artwork I

      I started tattooing like 6 years influenced by friends. It's hard to find tools during that time and i need to use a homemade tattoo machine for a start. After few months tattooing with homemade machine, i started to browse for supply in the web. Luckily i found one guy from Singapore, a Tattoo Artist who recently come back to Kuching for good and brought back some Tattoo Kits for sale. So we decided to meet him and bought 1 set of beginner tattoo kit and started to tattoo seriously.

So here are my artwork few years back until 2011 December.

The Beginning - Setting up a studio

     It was in early June, 2012 when i decided to stop tattooing at my parents house and looking for a shop to rent to set up my new place for my hobby - Tattooing. So i went out for shop hunting for few days and luckily i found one. Affordable, near to town with good environments, free parkings and easy access. Took about 7 mins from town by public transport and most important is there's a lot of shops, banks, pubs, 7 Eleven and Mc Donald and can be reach by Public Transport.

Special thanks to friends and family for the support and helping me out in setting up the studio. Especially my dad and mum (Mr John Story and Mrs Jelyn Manja), brother (Allexander John) and the best buddies ever Jaco Gellor, Brennen Zeneger, Felix Farentino and Lazarus Beti..So much appreciate guys..!!

So here are some photos on setting up the studio..!!
