Tommy

In the early fall of 1979, off the coast of the Atlantic I was found on an abandoned sea vessel … Since then I have been raging up and down the eastern seaboard, the mid-west and Europe. I am half Greek and all American, Currently I tattoo and manage Atomic Tattoos in New Port Richey. I love Pabst Blue Ribbon, punk rock, rockabilly, psychobilly and rat rods, pretty much anything low-brow.

In college I drank too little and learned too much. It was probably some of the best times I have ever had in my life. I enjoy studying politics, religion, and history. After college I freelanced a bit with Prick Magazine and a couple of local political zines, a couple of the articles were interviews with two artists Tony Ciavarro at Stinky Monkey Tattoos in Kingston, Mass, http://www.prickmag.net/tonyciavarrointerview.html and Litos at Forbidden Images in New Port Richey Florida http://www.prickmag.net/litosinterview.html.

Working for a tattoo magazine fueled the fire I needed to become an artist. So started I my apprenticeship under Glenn Harding at Studio 27 in 2001, but under much distress Mr. Harding left the state and it was left upon Frank Cubbage, who finished my apprenticeship in 2005. So after 4 years I finally achieved my goal of becoming a tattoo artist. The last 2 years have been at various shops in Florida and Georgia, but my eagle landed at Atomic Tattoos in New Port Richey. The one thing my apprenticeship taught me was patience. I have a great deal of respect for modern electric tattooing and its artist.
