AWESOME traditional american style tattoos

Okay....Traditional American artists come a dime a dozen. It kinda confuses me, because although I can gauge tradtional Japanese work pretty well, I have a hard time judging traditional american stuff. I know the cleaner the lines, the better. The brighter the colors, the better.....but thats about all I know. I know these two things arent the only requirements, and they dont have to apply in every situation, just most. Some people say Seth Cifferi is one of the best...as well as Chad Kopleinger....and some other guys. Personally I really like Chris' stuff from Ace Custom Tattoo......Its bright, clean, and got that feel to it. Anymore guys pumping out crazy traditional stuff??? I know there are TONS....but...maybe yall can put me on to some I have yet to see. Peace

No doubt, theres so friggin many of em. Theres Baba from Vintage Art Tattoo, Civ, Annette LaRue of Electric Ladyland, and 'Krooked' Ken Motter just to name a few...
