“You don’t choose to be an artist, it chooses you.” Born with art in his veins, Austin takes tattooing to the next level. “This is artwork people will wear for the rest of their lives and it’s got to be fuckin’ cool. I started drawing designs for tattoos in high school. I remember my first paid gig was to draw a skull with a joker’s hat on it. Seeing the guy with the art on his arm the next day was unbelievable. I was hooked.” Austin’s breakthrough designs and innovative style takes Studio 21 Tattoo Gallery beyond the ordinary to
the extraordinary.
