“Racing has always been driven by sponsors, and without them the sport wouldn’t exist. And with those sponsors came some amazing graphics especially in the early days, when everything was painted by hand. Those cars were incredible to look at.”

Dustin Leach

I draw inspiration from a lot of different places, but music has always been the biggest one for me. It sets the tone for how I create and keeps me connected to the feeling behind my work. I’ve always been into architecture too….Frank Lloyd Wright especially….and that shows up in how I think about structure and flow in a tattoo.

About Me:

Racing has also been a huge part of my life. Growing up around hand-painted cars and old-school graphics shaped how I see color, layout, and bold design. And in the tattoo world, artists like Chad Koeplinger, Steve Byrne, and Colin McClain helped shape the direction I’ve taken with traditional tattooing. Nature and spirituality tie everything together for me, keeping me grounded and giving me endless ideas to work from.

my Inspiration:

I’m a tattoo artist because I get to create every day, connect with people, and genuinely have fun doing it. After more than 15 years in this craft, I can honestly say I still love what I do.

Why I love Tattooing:

Tattoo Styles:
