It was so nice to meet this budding young artist in Part 1. Derek Hartmann (Derock to his friends) is a newer tattoo artist and he shares his journey with us; Through multiple career paths that finally lead back to art, enduring shut-downs and finally, a position in tattooing.
Derek works currently out of Art and Soul Tattoo Gallery in New Glarus, WI. He's most into Neo Traditional as a style in tattooing and has quite the array of interests. Listen in as we meet Derek and hear what a very current apprenticeship journey looks like.
Make sure to follow Derek on IG and keep an eye on this growing talent.
