One of the great benefits about being the Editor of TrueArtists magazine is I get to see a huge amount of amazing artwork on a daily basis. With all of the artists in our community, it's sometimes hard to decide which tattoos to include and which to leave out in each issue. In this issue, and the following issues that we have planned, you'll really get a taste of the craft & artistry that our TrueArtists have.
Not every artists gets to be accepted as a TrueArtist, in fact we reject about 50% of the applicants for various reasons. But we pride ourselves in that only the best can be a certified TrueArtist, people like Fade Manning of FadeFX in the UK that you'll see in the Dotwork article, or artists like Nic Westfall from San Francisco. And there's tons more.
'Course you don't have to wait for the next issue to see their work, you can always get your daily dose on TrueArtists.com or by liking us on Facebook. Just be warned though, the more TrueArtists work you see, that itch to get more ink done starts getting really loud.
Cheers,
Paulie
