Open agenda 2026 Summer/Autumn
Dear friends it's been a while since i updated the website and you heared something from me.
Life got me absorbed into reality of getting older and taking care of my health and family, slowing down and rethinking on how to continue tattooing in the future. I spend less time on social media and use this time to create, relax and do other things in life.​
​
At the moment i am not working long hours and taking care of my hands and fingers, after more than 40 years creating i am suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome and my hands need some love and rest otherwise it becomes chronic and more painful.
This means i ask for your patience, things can fall out or appointments will be moved when i cannot work, thanx for your understanding, support and respect.
​
I am booked full till after the summer and taking new appointments for autumn and winter.
Send me a mail, dm or use the website contact form to connect with me to continue older work or do something new.
There are a few rare openings in spring and summer, hook up because they go fast but most openings are in october, november, december.
Looking forward with new energy, spring and summer is kicking in and will bring that smile and light on our faces again;)
​
Last couple of months i have been working hard to change my studio into a new 'old' system to become more independent and got the approval by the healthcare (GGD) to work this way.
I have decided to go back to work with self made needles again and made a needle solder workstation separated from the tattoo workspace, i learned this 24 years ago from my mentor. Back to clean and sterilise my grips in my own brant new steam autoclave taking back control, responsibility. Making my own tools keep's the passion and traditions alive.
Not only that but to have controle over the cleaning process, more quality, less waste, better eco print for mother earth, no more toxic plastics and EO gass products.
Together with worldwide tattooers who connected to responsible tattoo artists groups that are more aware of how the industry is growing away from the crafts, we have knowledge and learn from eachother to pass on the love and passion of our arts and crafts of tattooing.
These old skills passed on from the past to present that starts to fade away by the fast commercial money grabbing industry, has nothing to do with the craft and love of tattooing.
lets pass on the craft by being responsible tattoo artist and look in the mirror, not in your wallet.
One love IGor.
