Las Vegas Tattoo Artist...

1 message · last activity 11/13/2009

hi, my name is Jon Poulson, I am an experienced tattoo artist from Las Vegas, NV, USA, Looking to move very soon. I have an extensive background in all forms of tattoong, but I have a strong background in in Polynesian Tribal tattoos. I have worked in every kind of tattoo shop imaginable from busy street shops, to small custom shops to some of the biggest named tattoo shops around. I just finished up a guest spot in Vancouver, BC Canada and I'm in Salt Lake City working out of a good friend's shop and spending time with my kids. You can preview a small sampling of my work at www.lasvegastattoos.net I have hundreds more pics, this is my Vegas Portfolio, designed to attract tourists from around the globe from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds, so I have to show a bit of everything, with a focus on nothing. Earlier this year I resigned my position at Vince Neil Ink, owned by Vince Neil of Motley Crue and Harra's Corporation after two years of service, for an opportuity to travel to Canada for the summer. Before that I was at Tattoo Heaven for several years, Tattoo heaven is located further down the world famous strip in Las Vegas, NV. Both of these shops are some of the busiest custom/street shops in Las Vegas, and have a great reputation. Prior to that, I tattoed at Sacred Center Tattoo in Las Vegas, specializing in Polynesian style tribal under the direction of Mike Fatutoa aka Samoan Mike. Mike apprenticed me for nearly 2 years, and I worked with him for just over 2 years, Working with mike allowed me to develop a love for the art and respect for the traditions surrounding it. I have over 8 years of professional experience, and I am a great guy, who is great with customers, without that holier than thou attitude. I am Dramma and Drug free, and love tattooing with a passion. If your shop isn't hiring, any info on a decent shop that's looking for a good artist would be appreciated. I am very excited about the potential opportunity, and would like to speak with you as soon as possible. Please contact me using the following info: www.lasvegastattoos.net
