Paul Roe, British Ink

June 27, 2009

in Interview, YouTube

I’ve posted several times on the topic of tattoos and the people who get them. But I’ve never had an opportunity to talk to a tattoo artist, until today.

I jammed my way into some very crowded Metro cars to make my way down to M Street where Paul Roe [Fez #30], the owner of British Ink was taking part in an art exhibition called Artomatic.

Paul was doing pre-session consultations while his colleague, Cynthia, hummed away on a guy’s right bicep. He squeezed me in for a chat and I even got to sit in the tattoo chair.

The interview ran just under 12 minutes and I couldn’t find two to trim so I could post on YouTube as a single file. So it’s a two-parter.
