Scott Sparks

I specialise in black and grey realism and the darker side of art.

I’ve always been an artist; I’ve always drawn, even at a young age. When I got my first tattoo, I was hooked.

Obviously tattooing, but I also enjoy coming to work every day, excited to put some art on someone’s body, and hanging out with all my mates.

The weirdest tattoo I’ve done is a Gucci symbol on a gooch.

The biggest misconception is that our job is easy, and all we do is sit down in an air-conditioned room all day. The job is very difficult; we are putting something permanent on a body every day.

I want to do a lot more conventions, get noticed by other artists all over the world, and just do good tattoos.
