RAYMAR YU

 

What motivated you to get tattooed in the first place?

  • I've always liked the idea of tattoos. There was really no question that one day I would have gotten one. However, expressing yourself through the art that others have created really makes you feel like a piece of art yourself.

How many tattoos do you currently have?

  • 13.

What was your first tattoo and why did you select it?

  • My first tattoo was the bear on my forearm. I really have no reason as to why I chose it. Bears are cool I guess.

 
 

Which one of your tattoos would you say is your favourite?

  • I would have to say the Casper Day tattoo. The band itself means a lot to me, but the fact that the whole band now has matching tattoos strengthens my love for the band and everyone in it.

What artist(s) would you like to get tattooed?

  • My good and long time friend Brandon (@_morrish), an aspiring tattoo artist. I already have a couple small pieces from him, but I am really looking forward to getting more once he’s in a more professional phase in his art career!

What do you like about the particular style(s) of tattoos that you've chosen to get done?

  • I think I like the fact that my all tattoos are a fairly different style. Mainly because I love the work of so many different artists and I wouldn’t want to limit myself to that one style.
