Brandon,

Thank you for your help, you have been very helpful. I live here in mesa, I actually have some of your work on my neck(dice and fire). I love it. I really respect your work, I love the brightness, I only wish I could get the color as bright as you do, but i Think i need to use different ink. My equipment isnt the best, but it is what i could buy to start with and has worked well for a year so far. I use equpment and ink from Superior tattoo supply company, a company based in phoenix on 19th ave. I hope onjeday i will be even half as good as you. I know what i really need is someone to apprentice under, I have alot of things to learn about tattooing, and I would really love to make tattooing my carreer. Thank you again for your help, I really appreciate it.  I do have another question I would like to ask, when shading in color what kind of technique do you find to be the best? as in round shading ect.

All the best,
Rich
