This Artist Created 30 Tattoos That Look Like Stickers That Would Peel Right Off Your Skin

Luke told us how he got into tattooing: "I got into tattoos by accident, I was just hanging out in this small town and the local shop was looking for an apprentice so I applied and got an apprenticeship."

The artist also shared how he got the idea to do the sticker tattoos: "It just kind of happened, everyone always said my tattoos looked like stickers so I just decided to try a white border and it worked."

Luke told us more about the process and main themes of his tattoos: "The design process is time-consuming, I put in about 2-3 hours or longer designing most of them. I have been doing them for about 3 years now and I won't stop until people are no longer interested in getting them. I mostly do pop culture, cartoon tattoos. It’s kind of its own style, realism meets new school, maybe?"

Here's a tip from Luke for those who want to be tattoo artists themselves: "Give it your all or don’t do it, tattooing needs to be 100%. I know a lot of people say it but only a small percentage actually live to tattoo."

Luke shared some info about himself: "I do a good bit of conventions every year so when I’m not on the road, I’m pretty chill. I mostly work, watch movies and hang out with my girlfriend and our 2 dogs. I play a bit of guitar and drums. I love cars and most things with an engine.

The journey to get here was long and hard, haha. I worked many odd jobs, sold drugs, begged for money, couch surfed, but when I fell into tattooing, that was it, I put all my energy into it. It was hard—I didn’t make much money tattooing until recently, but I didn’t care, I loved it so much. I still love it!"

He also tells us more about his tattoos: "Not sure how many tattoos I have, I don’t regret any really, they all have stories. The only story that stands out would be my neck tattoo, haha. I was 17 or 18 and had $60. I hitchhiked a town over to get tattooed but the guy couldn’t get me in until the morning so I slept in some bushes on cardboard until I could get the tattoo."
