Artist Bio
Art is who I am. I followed my heart down the path many are not willing to take. I wasn’t looking for treasure, I just had a hunger to express myself and nobody was going to tell me otherwise. I hustled my way through art school while at the same time worked in the tattoo industry in Christchurch city. Art gave me an outlet to feel and an attempt to express my experience. Tattooing bought me closer to people and the characters I shared space with gave me perspective. I was the owner of Expression tattoo and art for 9 years and now work privately. My preferred style is Tā moko and black and grey tattooing . I am an old soul living in a world forever changing, This is my art .
Ko Ngai Tahu te iwi
Ko Ngāti kurī te hapu
Ko Takahanga te marae
Ko Elias Tyro toku ingoa.
