William Webb Quotes

There is no other art medium like tattooing in the world. When the customer comes in with a basic idea, it is up to me to design and translate that idea onto skin. I really appreciate when customers have enough trust in what I can do.

It doesn't help us understand, and it creates a gulf that drives us apart.
