This seminar will take place over two days, in Avignon.
Monday, November 26. The day will open with a designer of rotary tattoo machines. He will be showcasing one of his new, popular tattooing tools. He will explain how he came up with the original concept, designed the prototype, and why he thinks that his tools work better than any conventional dermograph.
After noon, Ink Master winner Shane O’Neill will share his technical expertise on black and gray portraits. He will cover topics ranging from needle selection, machines, ink and tubes, to his approach to working with a stencil.
Tuesday, November 27, Julien Thibers and Manu de Châlons (Manu Badet), will host a workshop focusing on the rotary tattoo machines they are so passionate about and now use exclusively.
Manu de Châlons has gained international notoriety over nearly two decades for his realistic portrait work, and is kind enough to share with you his work and talk about his technique.
Julien Thibers (clockwork needles) is a rising star in the French tattooing firmament and has been drawing and painting for many years. He’s been hosting his master classes in Épinal, and will be on hand to share his expertise with tattoo professionals. He will also weigh in on his impressions about using rotary tattoo machines.
