Byron.

​

    Byron is a Tattoo Artist based in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles. Byron was born on the small island of Curacao. Since he was a child he always liked to draw. Every chance he got he drew during school and even drew on his walls in his room. The first time he saw the art of tattoo he was impressed and immediately grew interested in it, from that point on he wanted to be a Tattoo Artist for life. At the age of 16 he made his own machine out of small cars and started tattooing himself and his friends. After graduating Byron went on to study Graphic Design in Holland but after a while he told his mother and family that he wanted to learn how to tattoo professionally. A good friend of Byrons bought him his first professional tattoo machine, which made him happy and his passion for the art grew stronger. He first started really tattooing friends in Hoofddorp, Holland. People really started liking his style and his art. After tattooing his friend Eli, Byron got connected with Johnny who was the manager of Bodycult. When talking and looking around the shop Byron was more then happy to get his career off the ground and was offered to try out his skills. Now getting a chance, his nerves got the best of him and the staff and manager told him to go and practice some more and keep learning to perfect his tattooing skills. After some time improving his skills he got a job at Bodycult Amsterdam. Working there for a few years, he started at Piercing Works and integrated tattoo into the piercing shop. Later on he moved back to Curacao and began his own tattoo shop.

     Byron has been tattooing for many years and has attended multiple tattoo conventions around the world.  While participating in conventions Byron has won many awards for his tattoo work that he has done.
