Hi Lee, thanks for sparing us the time to have a chat about your tattoos, your tattoo artist and what tattoo styles you like! It’s going to be a regular feature here on ink13.co.uk, and we even have an interview in the pipeline with the fantastic Joe Capobianco, but more on that later!

Cracking straight on with the questions if you don’t mind!

An easy one to start with, roughly how much of your body is covered with ink?

At present I have a full backpiece, both arms sleeved, right lower leg sleeved and the top of both feet.

When did you get your first tattoo, what is it and where is it?

It is a “Paul Booth tearing skull” I had it done in 2000 shortly after moving to London. It is on the top of my right arm and took 6 hours to complete. I initially wanted a Dragon but changed my mind after seeing the flash sheet.
