I want to make something very clear about how I approach my work.

If you come to me for a tattoo, I will do that tattoo to the absolute best of my ability. Your political views, religious beliefs, personal philosophy, or opinions do not have to match mine. None of that changes the way I treat you as a client or the quality of work I give you. Those things are yours, and I respect that.

What I will not accept is being contacted on a Sunday morning and accused of intentionally changing or altering someone's tattoo because of personal differences, especially when I've already done extensive work for that same client, including nearly a full sleeve on one arm and a half sleeve on the other.

I don't treat one tattoo differently from the next based on whether I personally like the subject matter. There are plenty of tattoo styles and designs that aren't my personal preference. Tribal isn't my favorite, for example, but if I agree to do it, I approach it professionally and give it the same care and attention I give everything else.

I've built my career by taking my work seriously and treating my clients professionally. I expect the same basic respect in return.

If you believe our personal beliefs need to align in order for me to tattoo you, or you're going to question the integrity of my work because they don't, then I'm probably not the artist for you, and that's okay. There are plenty of other artists out there.

My personal beliefs do not determine the quality of the tattoo you receive from me. They never have, and they never will.

Ok, so Im considering moving my residence to Burns and doing one week a month in Salem.

Burns friends and clients...
Do you think people would get tattooed year round? Or is it better that I just come once a month?

Salem, folks....

do you think it would be feasible for me to stack all my appointments into a week's time?
