SUMMARY:Francis Martin
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nTattoo Demo on Mother’s Day \nAt Paint Ontario\, I will demonstrate the tattooing process using practice skin.  The process is exactly the same as tattooing on a real person\, the same machines\, techniques and attention to detail\, but instead of human skin\, I will work on a latex practice skin.  As I work\, the tattoo needle leaves marks in the material\, allowing the design to gradually take shape. Visitors will be able to watch the process step by step and see how a tattoo is built from the first lines to the finished image.  This demonstration offers a close look at the craftsmanship\, precision and artistry behind tattooing. I will answer questions and talk about the process as I work. I have been tattooing professionally for seven years and enjoy sharing the art and techique with others
