Roger Alan Wade sings a great line in one of his songs in which he says that "If your gonna be dumb, ya gotta be tough." This mantra can also be related to any of us that to choose to live on the fringes and on our own terms. I always saw this in any tattoo artist that I have met. They live from one drawing to the next and tend to be quite the free spirits. Their marks are permanent and each design is reflective of their skill set as the wearer of the ink will most likely have it forever, unless they go through the even more painful process of tattoo removal. Watching a quick video by Casey Neistat shows just how easy it can be to create your own tattoo gun and get busy leaving your mark.
