Marc Lescarbeau, owner of Needlejig Tattoo Supply, recently had a great conversation with a local artist, painter, and tattooer Brian Brown. Topics discussed include: * What it was like learning how to tattoo 20 years ago in a state where tattooing was illegal. * Starting off as a graffiti artists finding the raddest largest spots and how that translates to other arts. * Tattooing in San Francisco California and how important doing hard work is to make your career. * Leveling up, and returning to western Massachusetts to open a custom tattoo studio in the Berkshires. * The influence of his witch mother, and how that informs his tattoos and studio vibe. * Developing his dark tattoo art style, and photographing skulls and custom reference. * Influences including Beksinski, Victor Portugal, David Jorquera, Paul Booth, and artists with more technical darker styles * Brian talks about his first experiences with Needlejig Tattoo Supply.
