Master... using the Godoy Machines - V3 ModelManuel Isaias Aceves Servin - known officially as: xmasterx, was born in Guadalajara Jalisco, Mexico May 27, 1983.Since he was a kid, he'd always shown great aptitude in drawing... as an adolescent, this art went hand in hand with his playing in a hardcore band and being exposed to heavily tattooed people and the inspiration to learn technique and involve himself in the art.
Through friends, Master met Richi Michel, who at 11 years of tattooing had gained international recognition for his world class tattooing ability. Master bought his first machine right then and there and took a self taught approach for the following 6 months before having job offers and an official apprenticeship from Richi Michel.
In the Richi Tattoo studio he was exposed to the work of
javier kuatom & martin zapo, who's influence helped to direct and to shape Master's career and ability. After 4 years, he operates Blackline Tattoo and travels to national and international conventions entering contests and winning.
REALISM... A TRUE UNDERSTANDING OF TECHNIQUE...
A REAL UNDERSTANDING OF COLOR, BALANCE AND COMPOSITION...
