I feel lucky to call this guy my tattoo artist. Ian was once a middle school teacher, but now he is one of Missoula's most well known tattoo artists. He has only been tattooing for the past few years but his art looks like that of a seasoned veteran. He's an inspiration, committed, and very passionate about his craft. Ian is heavily tattooed so I asked him how it all started. "It's a lot like when you are shopping for clothes and you find something that fits," he said. "I feel like tattooing is the culture I most identify with. I like the way tattoos look." I asked Ian what he likes most about his profession. "I really like the infinite potential it has for progression," he said. "I like the pressure of it and people having expectations that you can make the best possible piece of art you can."
