East Coast Tattoo Shop – Bardadim.Tattoo – NYC – Japanese and Realistic Tattoo.
Russian born tattoo artist working in Japanese Tattoo Style and Realism .
Started tattooing at age 17 using an ordinary sewing needle and thread- a primitive tattoo method often used in Russia during Soviet power period. In 1988 built my first tattoo machine with a ‘Sputnik’ spring powered shaver, empty ball pen cartridge, and a sharpened guitar string (see pictures). That was beginning of my careerッ
Numerous experiments in building rotary tattoo machines from custom made parts and close partnership with Taras Shevchenko , leaded me to professional tattoo machine building.
I spend few years working in my private tattoo studio before started traveling around The Globe in 1999, working as a guest artist at the best European and NYC tattoo shops and attending biggest tattoo events such as: London Tattoo Convention , Paris Le Mondial du Tatouage , Frankfurt , Berlin, NYC, Milan etc. Those years I also started to create my own tattoo flash sets .
Nowadays I work in Brooklyn, New York and available for appointments in few different shops and Tattoo Conventions. I work by custom only, so if you like my tattoo style, please, feel free to contact me and I will do my best to help you to create your unique tattoo.
Thank you.
