In my own words
— steveI have a background in the tattoo industry with over 10 years experience and 8 years of design experience in fashion and marketing.
I am passionate about all creative walks and always growing. I can hand draw idea and develop it into a workable design for screen print production then take that product to get shot for catalog or recorder on a model by a video designer for a commercial, youtube ad or lifestyle loop video for trade shows.
