I’ve been tattooing since 1999,” said Brian Webb, owner of Eye Candy Tattoo. The range of people who get tattoos has broadened over the years. “I have doctors, lawyers, police officers…I can’t imagine somebody of any kind of job title I don’t tattoo.” Eye Candy Tattoo has six tattoo artists with each of them specializing in certain styles.
“For the several genres or styles of tattooing, we’ve got somebody who can do it,” Webb remarked. “Most of my clients get large tattoos like sleeves, leg pieces, and back pieces. Depending on the size and type of tattoo they want, there can be multiple sessions involved. Tattoos often commemorate significant life events. After getting a divorce, a lot of women want phoenixes because it’s like a rebirth. Parents often put in stuff for their kids, like a teddy bear or a pacifier. I need to know all the details they want so I can create an image that fits and flows well with their body and looks good and cohesive as a design.”
