The soon to be lost art of Tattoo Needle Making. It’s a skill developed decades ago in the back rooms of some of the best tattoo shops in the world, and passed down to a select few. . . Tattooing is a craft. It’s rooted in tradition. It takes years to learn each component. . . I see people standing on the shoulders of giants, but do they know what it took to get there? There are corporations destroying our craft. They are stealing the sacred knowledge from the next generations and turning it into profits. Creating reliance on supplies made cheap. I learned this tradition in the back room of Sacred Center Tattoo. Every Sunday making needles, scrubbing tubes, and learning this sacred craft. . These needles have made countless masterpieces over the years, and will continue to do so. . Anyway; craft, tradition, and hard work go into something that takes passion and dedication. . When I tattoo each of you, I’m not diving into new trends; I pull from centuries past, and keep traditions alive.
