Join us each week as we blast off through the tattoo universe! We’ll talk about our own thoughts and inspiration, as tattoo collectors, as well as the journey of our guests. We’ll delve into everything from first tattoos, to full body suits, and everything in between. In this podcast, we will not be talking about how to tattoo, or any technical tricks of the trade. There are thousands of other platforms just for that. Here, we talk about tattoos from the collectors point of view. We’ll share advice for collectors, as well as our specific experiences from our own tattoo journeys. We want to prepare, and inspire other collectors. https://www.tattoocollecting.com/community
Updates, images and materials list can be at reinventingthetattoo.com or on our community app "I am looking forward to having everyone who wants to join to come in open minded and ready to hang out and go over and share some ways that I have learned to perceive shapes, value, light and shadow. We will also be going over some motivational aspects of life and art and where I see them merging in this moment we're in. And some other fun things like movies and music. So please all skill levels are welcome. For everyone that has been having doubt about joining in on the zoom sessions, please, understand that in order to grow in our artistic endeavors, our lives, and as humans we need to take that first step. I have been there myself and still am. This is another reason I am happy to be contributing to this community. It's a very welcoming environment to allow this process. So just jump in"! -Ricardo Sturdivant
