Welt U.

"Ascoltare un pò più gli adulti, anche se è difficile a quell'età". Questo è il consiglio di Welt, titolare del centro Yama Tattoo di Roma. Fare un tatuaggio è un pò come dipingere su tela, e ci si può dimenticare della persona. La difficoltà sta nel trovare il giusto compromesso con il cliente, "per avere alla fine un tatuaggio più artistico che commerciale".

Eri Tanaka

"Why not become a tattoo artist?", Eri Tanaka asked herself. After she graduated in English literature she first worked as an English teacher, "but if you have tattoos, it is difficult to keep the job, especially as a Japanese teacher", she says. What she likes most about her Job? "I can go anywhere in the world with my Job." And: "When I finish tattooing and see my customer is happy with the tattoo, I feel happy too."

Gene Coffey

“The moments I feel the happiest is, when I’ve done a tattoo that’s so unique and different, and I feel really fulfilled from it and the customer is really in love with it”, Gene Coffey tells us about the best part of his job as an Tattoo Artist. “I tattoo 5 days a week, the 6th day, I spend all day working on all the drawings for the entire week.”
