I am an up and coming tattoo artist, currently serving my apprenticeship under Jason Gist at Street Ink Studios. My favorite flavor is color, big bold and beautiful. I love pin up and realism, and am heavily inspired by artists such as Rich Pineda and Rodney Eckenberger. I can dissect color drawings to the point of reverse engineering, which greatly helps me assemble the right color combinations when applying ink to skin. I formed "One Ink Seven" in 2012. This is an outlet for me to market my custom products, such as apparel, custom power supplies, ink trays, and flash designs. I use Starbright and Formula 51 inks, as I feel they offer the best color saturation and blending capabilities. You can find me on FB - Rob Smead or One Ink Seven. Ink on!
