| About Me: |
| Transplanted postpunk New Yorker raising the bar in the new south. Co owner of Seppuku Tattoo in Savannah, GA, along with fine artist Matt Lukesh. I have a resume that goes back to 1984 & includes everything from set design to art direction. More well known for other art like my concert poster work that hangs in Hard Rock Cafes globally, The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, or work that appears in Guitar Hero 3. Apprenticed under Mario Barth in 2000, helped open Screamin' Ink in 2001, moved to Savannah on 2005 to open Seppuku. |
| About My Ink: |
At Seppuku, we eat, drink, breathe, sweat, sleep, fuck, shit, eat the shit & shit it out again tattoos & art, this is not our occupation, this is our profession. If you can catch the meaning, you'll know what we're all about. Take a look for yourselves: http://www.seppukutattoo.com. And just FYI, yes, this is all my own art, & it is all copyrighted, particularly anything with a band name or magazine title on it,...
Check out the art on the Seppuku profile, as this profile is just a mess,...! ;) |

| About Whom I Want to Meet: |
Passionate bastards that want to suck the marrow out of the bones of life & leave their mark on this spinning ball of mud before we do the permanent check out.
PROFESSIONALS who want to preserve the traditions of those who came before. And generally, the mentally unstable & people who can see into alternate realities.
Nazis & scratchers, spontaneously combust & fuck off. |

The Seppuku Tattoo crew is featured in this month's issue of Tattoos For Men, #82, from the Skin Art publishing team. Johnny has a piece in the Pin Up Girl section, & Matt has several pieces in the Color Bomb & Mythology section.
For those of you who were at the April photo shoot with Skin & Ink, this is not that shoot at all. I have a date for the Skin & Ink that will feature Johnny's art on the cover, which will be on the December issue & on the stands before the end of the year. Our interview will follow a few issues later. We also have an interview featured in Tattoo Savage, but also do not have a date for that one either. We'll keep you updated. |
