FREESTYLE NO SKETCHES. NO STENCILS. NO LIMITS. “GIVE ME A PIECE OF YOUR SKIN AND I’LL GIVE YOU A PIECE OF MY SOUL.” Born in Johannesburg but now based in Amsterdam, Jay is a self-taught tattoo artist who creates ethereal, watercolour-like tattoos completely freehand. He might come to the table with a needle but he leaves behind any sort of pre-conceived creative notions. His technique speaks of a spirit of spontaneity but the artists reveals that he is not a spontaneous person by nature… this is an artist approaches each piece with humility, conviction, and unbelievable skill. No Sketches. No Stencils. No limits. Meet Jay Freestyle.
