Here’s a couple images and also a video from Nowness that interviews and captures the words and actions from this legend…
Also for more info on him pick up the book by another legendary tattooer Juan Puente Horiyoshi III

His detail, colors and then the free hand with the machine is just a thing of beauty…

Thanks to Ryan Sage and Jim Liaw none of this would be possible for giving me and many drift competitors the platform to compete, grow and show the country and even the world the best drifting sanctioning body, FORMULA DRIFT onward and upward, all killer, no filler!

I was humbled on Monday Jan 11 2010 when a short 2 minute piece was aired about me being the “Voice of Formula Drift” and me in general, thanks to Aaron Gaghagen for reaching out and producing the piece, did a great job…
Like I say “Actions speak louder than words, I just put an exclamation point on it all!”

Enjoy and let me know what you think:

Here’s the piece as it aired on 3TV with the bumps in and out, mentioning something I haven’t announced yet… X Games….
