About
Rising Sun Graphix is meant to be different from a regular streetshop.
Totally private and quiet. Working like this is not meant to be for
everyone and I respect and understand different way of conducting
tattooing on a higher level. Either it´s a private studio or
street/walk-in shop. Remember I try to focus on serious work, most times
this including several sessions and extensive hours before reaching
finished result.
Japanese Tattoing is one of the existing styles in tattooing that is
most time consuming. This is because of the images and graphix used. One
of my goals in creating solid/strong tattoos includes less detailed
outlines. This means the use of more simplified images and the use of
heavy black in the background.
I´m traveling to Japan on a regular basis, been there 5 times since
2001. And it really helped out a lot trying to find the true spirit and
roots of the Japanese tattoo. Remember, there are many styles of
Japanese Tattooing. It´s up to you as a customer to decide what you
like. My style is just one more attempt to make it fit together, and is
the result of many years education on my own, which includes drawing,
tattooing, travelling and meeting serious tattooers around the globe who
share the same goal. Making kickass-tattoos!
I´ve had the oppurtunity to meet many good tattooers in Japan, USA and
Europe and wish to say many thank´s to them all for showing and sharing
valuable information that helped me alot along the way the last couple
of years.
Last but not least I wish to express my gratitude to my loyal
regular-customers that keep on coming for more hardcore-tattoos.
