Tattooing from the East Coast to the West Coast with Rizza Boo and Taylor PART ONE
Charissa 'Rizza Boo' Gregson (of Bath Street Tattoo Collective in Glasgow) and Taylor Heald (of Sink orSwim in Buffalo, NY) have recently returned from a tattoo road trip across the USA. Tattooing on the road is nothing new to them – they're regular travel buddies, and as members of Ink Fusion they frequently tattoo at comic and toy conventions including the Star Wars Celebrations and MegaCon – but this was something different: An awesome East to West trip, taking in guest spots at studios along the way, with many hours on the open road and plenty of time to allow the journey to unfold and just see what would happen...
PHILADELPHIA The start of our trip
RIZZA: When the opportunity arose to do an East to West road trip across the USA with my friend Taylor Heald, I jumped at the chance. I love to travel and meet new people, and one of tattooing's biggest perks is mixing work and play! I'd been to the states before, visiting family and doing some smaller trips, but this was to be an adventure of epic proportions. We'd be doing guest spots along the way and I would get to see – for real – some of the breathtaking sights that I'd previously only seen in photos or on television.

London Tattoo Convention
One of the biggest and most exceptional tattoo circuses on the planet takes over London's Tobacco Dock every September. This show has been going for so long, and operating at such a consistently high level, that it's easy to overlook just what it has achieved.
Burning Bright - The Prints Of Alex Binnie
One of many exciting things at this year's London Tattoo Convention was the launch of Burning Bright, a stunning new book of Alex Binnie's prints from American fine art publishers Raking Light Projects. We spoke with Andrew Fingerhut about his vision for the book and his collaboration with the legendary tattooist and prolific printmaker who founded iconic London studio Into You.
Affanita
Tala Easton, aka Affanita, works at The Rising Tide Tattoo Collective in Poole. Although she is not long into her tattoo career, she has already established herself as a talented artist with a unique style.
James Barny Watts
Artist James Barny Watts was born and raised in New Zealand. He came to the UK in the late 80s with his band Static, but after landing a record deal and touring as a drummer, things petered out. He found himself drawn back to his first love, art, and a chance encounter led him into the world of tattoos, his major source of inspiration. We caught up with him in his studio space (conveniently located behind Lal Hardy's famous London shop New Wave Tattoo) where he makes his amazing tattoo-themed carved paintings and engravings.
Jessica Kinzer
Jessica is an extraordinary new talent in the tattoo world. Although she's only been tattooing for two and a half years, she demonstrates a level of skill and professionalism that often takes far longer to develop. Winner of German tattoo magazine Tätowier's 'Best Newcomer' award, we think she has a great career ahead of her.

Karlee Jane
Like all of our cover models Karlee Jane is so much more than a pretty face. She has successfully combined her passions for photography, ballet, modelling and yoga to create a busy and fulfilling life that sees her jetting about all over the place. We managed to track her down to find out a little more about what makes this West Coast girl tick...
Cervena Fox
Cervena Fox has been setting the tattoo world alight for many years now. She is a well-known tattoo model, appearing on numerous magazine covers and boasting a seven-figure social medial following, and she is also a founder member of Pyrohex, the famous all-girl pyromania show that regularly performs at tattoo conventions (including our very own Big North Tattoo Show). Cervena is now a tattooist herself, and with her recent marriage to American tattoo legend Durb Morrison her stratospheric career shows no sign whatsoever of slowing down!
