About me:

A life long artist , Chuck’s path to tattooing began at the age of 18 when he skipped high school with his best friend to get his first tattoo. From then on he was hooked. Drawing tattoo designs for himself , eventually Chuck’s art attracted the attention of friends who enlisted him to draw designs for them., In time Chuck found him self actively searching for an apprenticeship while spending his free time getting tattooed and looking for advice from local tattoo artists. Chuck’s career as a tattoo artist truly took off after beginning to apprentice under Mark Madden of Madd Grafix in Buffalo NY in 2006 the same year he began attending Buffalo State College. Chuck spent the next year apprenticing under Mark not just learning to tattoo but also improving his art and being exposed to various styles of art from graffiti to the great classical masters .Since finishing his apprenticeship Chuck has continued to strive to constantly improve his skills as an artist .His style can be best described as a fusion of old school and new combining the simple elegance of classic American tattooing with the bold lines, bright colors and warped imagery of modern tattooing. Chuck is earning a bachelors of fine arts degree and plans to follow that up by working to obtain his masters. In his off time Chuck is an avid fan of 1940s / 50s pinup art , traditional tattoos , kustom kulture , and psychobilly music. Chuck lists his favorite tattoo artist in no particular order as Sailor Jerry , Horiyoshi III , Grime , Nate Beavers , Brandon Bond , Dave Tedder , Mr. Cartoon, Dave Fox and many more. Chuck can be contacted at (716)883-8282 or at www.maddtat2.com
