About me:
Addictive Ink tattoos is in it's Thirteenth year. And I have seen it through a lot of ups and downs. But through this we have accomplished more than I ever thought possible. Always wanting to be a great tattoo artist and never settling for second best. I have been on a voyage to create the ultimate experience for my clients. Not just in my tattooing, but to create the whole package expedience. Customer service,A clean comfortable environment and Tattoo work you couldn't just get anywhere. In my career I have been invited to and attended over 120 shows world wide. Over the years I have been honored by being invited to be a guest speaker doing seminars at some of the most respected shows in the world, even on two Carnival cruises. Been featured in some of the most prestigious publications. Been featured on the travel channel.Been honored by being on posters and TV commercials for tattoo conventions. I have tattooed with the best of best and have made some great friends around the world. I have also been honored with over 200 awards of excellence in almost every category you can think of. Even two separate awards for having one of the best shops, and my pride and joy. 2003,"Tattoo Artist of the Year". I am at a pinnacle point in my career of almost 16 years. I have a bigger and better NEW SHOP and an AMAZING STAFF.

Who I'd like to meet: People with a great attitude and passion for what they do and believe in
"When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'." I'm whispering "I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven." When I say... "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak And need His strength to carry on. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed And need God to clean my mess. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect, My flaws are far too visible But, God believes I am worth it. When I say... "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches So I call upon His name. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou, I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow

Hey Dave its Cait. How have you been? Hey I have a question for you? I was layin out in the sun and when I went inside I noticed that my back hurt. I looked at my tat and part of it is raised. I was wondering if you could possibly tell me why it might do that and if Im having a reaction to the ink now and if that can happen after Ive had it for a while? Hope all is well
