how did you know you wanted to tattoo ?

Hello, my name is Shane Kamerik and I am a tattooer by trade. I don't have much need for proper grammar or spelling so having a blog might not be the best idea I have ever had but I’m going to give it a shot anyway. Clients often ask me, "how did you know you wanted to tattoo”? I usually answer the same way a lot of tattooers do by saying, well, I have always been into drawing and art, friends had me design their tats, people said I should… ect ect. But lately I have been thinking a lot about this and realized it was what I was always going to do. My entire interest in art started very young when I found a tattoo magazine. I was floored. I had seen tattoos before then, a lot of my family had tattoos and some were heavily tattooed; but I had never seen tattoos and drawings like the ones in the life changing publication I held in my hands. I spent months looking through it and tracing the crudely drawn skulls, snakes, and wizards. That summer I saw a guy that lived on my street outside with nothing but shorts on, an old One-percenter, with a full body suit, and I knew right then, I was going to be heavily tattooed. Almost all my life I knew I was going to get tattooed the first chance I got with no plans of stopping. And that’s exactly what I did. But that’s a story for another day. Along the way I have been influenced by a lot of different styles of art; skate decks, album covers, lowbrow, comic books and graffiti, to name a few, but tattooing was never far from my mind. What my life would be like today if I had never found that early 80’s tat rag is a reality I don't even want to imagine. I owe everything to tattooing and will spend the rest of my life trying to pay back that debt. Hello my name is Shane Kamerik and I’m a tattooer by trade.
