So, do you want me to write out a card?
You want to take a picture of this?
I mean, I just saved it to my phone.
Oh, you got it? Okay.
I'll remind you the day before.
- Yeah, cool. - Yeah, I'll call you up.
When I was about 15,
I got a Spaulding and Rogers catalogue.
When I saw that stuff, especially the Japanese stuff,
I was blown away; that's kind of what did it.
And then, the fellow who taught me, named Bob Moreau,
opened Perfection Tattoo in San Antonio.
I guess it was about '86.
I'd never really seen a tattoo,
like these like screaming neon green colors.
He loved to use it.
It's what attracted me to tattooing at first.
And of course, Dave Lum.
Dave Lum was taught by my teacher Bob Moreau.
And Dave was doing the most outrageous
full-color beautiful, heavy duty tattoos.
Doing all the whacked out, crazy dicks and pussies,
and any crazy thing you could think of,
you know, he's putting on people.
Titties all over the place and...
And he put pee in the mouth of mine.
He's like, you know-- I was like, "What is that yellow?"
He's like, "He's got a mouth full of pee," you know.
(Laughs)
Chris bought Dave Lum's shop when he moved,
so that's how Chris ended up in Austin.
I guess it could be Texas traditional or Texas trad.
It was this take on American traditional tattooing and
they always added their Texas flavour,
so you could tell where Chris Trevino did something.
People in Austin were totally open to just getting
the craziest tattoos that you can imagine.
I mean, no tattoos could look like this.
I'd never seen anything like it:
so big, so bright, so crisp.
This stuff looked like spray paint.
When I started working with him in the late 90s,
it had shifted.
And then there was more and more Japanese elements
brought into the tattooing, and then,
he completely broke off into Japanese and
it was almost an overnight thing.
That was fun. It was part of a body suit.
Jidai - that was another back piece that was fun.
It's whatever I need to stencil. The rest I'll--
like most of the stuff has a lot more going on.
Money frogs, these are fun. I did these in Japan.
When I first went to Japan, was in '96.
That's when it really hit me,
going to see Horiyoshi, getting tattooed by Horiyoshi,
I always knew it was the best,
but watching him work one piece after another just
going through the methodical steps every day,
I was like, this is how it's done.
I went to the first Tokyo Tattoo Convention in 1999.
My buddy Matt Rollins I did a body suit on,
I'd sent him to Horiyoshi to get a rib piece.
Horiyoshi insisted that Three Tides invite me
after seeing what I'd done on Matt.
Three Tides is an American style tattoo studio in Osaka,
so I ended up there, you know, somehow.
By fate, I think.
From then on, I didn't stop going for eleven years.
♪
This is the first copy Horiyoshi sent me of my name.
This is the fax he sent me.
This is Horimana, showing me how it looked and
what it was gonna be and what it meant.
This is a skateboard.
I cut my ankle and I was dipping the brush in my ankle,
and the butterfly...
I made a blood butterfly. Horiyoshi did it first.
It wasn't my idea; I copied him.
No, I'd already been tattooing a long time.
I wasn't gonna be good as an apprentice anyway.
He's like more of a friend and he would help me a little bit.
He did something that no other American did.
He tried to almost invade Japan.
I was working six days a week,
12 hours a day.
I love that about Japanese stuff.
You know, you don't do anything that takes you
away from your main craft or your focus.
You become part of a bigger thing.
Everything's already kind of-- it's all decided.
How do you do a leaf? This is how you do a leaf.
Make it four or five different ways.
You can't just do this stuff without knowing what
you're doing and what it means and understand it.
For a long time, I wouldn't even read any books other
than something pertaining to Japanese tattooing
or tradition or history or culture.
He's a sorcerer-warrior. I love doing these things.
Most of it's all from stories.
It's all, you know, based in history and tradition.
If you don't understand what they mean,
you can't do it.
You have to-- that's a big part of it, yeah, so...
You could read all you want, but being there in person
makes a huge difference.
Drawing on the vomit bag from JL on the way home
one time from Japan.
He took what he learned from copying Horiyoshi's tattoos,
and then, incorporated his own personality,
his own flavour.
And that's when I decided to get a back piece from him.
I was super influenced by him.
Five trips, ten sessions...
70 hours.
You look, look at it, and it's...
it's beautiful.
It's fucking sick.
I had been looking and looking because
I'm part Japanese, so...
I wanted Japanese art.
I called him and the first thing I said,
"Do you still do Japanese tattoos?"
And he goes, "Yes."
He goes, "What are you looking for?"
I forgot what I said.
You wanted a koi and a tiger--
Koi and a tiger, yeah.
A koi and a tiger or something together, you know,
'cause I seen his work and the kois were beautiful.
And then the tigers. He said,
"That combination don't work."
When I talk to somebody about their first arm,
they're like, "Well, I want to get a tiger and a koi."
And it's like, no, because it doesn't make sense.
You can get, you know,
if you want a tiger on one arm, that's fine.
But you're gonna get a dragon on the other arm,
otherwise it's gonna not fit.
So I'll start to name options before we even do
anything to make sure we're not painting into a corner.
I had to wait 'til my mother died 'cause she's Japanese,
so obviously, when I came home with the snake on my leg,
"Oh my God! (Japanese) Oh!"
(Laughs)
(Tattoo machine buzzing)
And then she passed, and that's when
I started back up again.
After this one, we're gonna do the full back one.
I may be 64 years old, but I feel young.
