Why is everyone getting tattoos? What you need to know. With Electric Linda (EP 83)

Creative Culture with Steve Ramsey

In this episode of Creative Culture, I talked with Electric Linda, a master tattoo artist hailing from Norway about tattoo art. With over two decades of experience, Linda brings a rich tapestry of stories, insights, and artistic wisdom to the table. Known for her dynamic and colorful photorealistic tattoos, as well as being a specialist in coverups, Linda has won over 50 international tattoo awards. Beyond her tattoo mastery, she's also a passionate entrepreneur, running both a successful tattoo studio and an online store inspired by tattoo art. This conversation explores the depths of tattoo culture, artistic expression, and the personal journeys intertwined with every inked piece.

Main takeaways from the show include:

• The evolution of tattoo placements and societal perceptions over the past two decades.
• Insights into the personal and emotional significance tattoos hold for individuals.
• The intricacies of tattoo artistry, from photorealism to coverups, and the technical skills required.
• The importance of artist-client relationships in the tattoo process and how it shapes the final artwork.
• The impact of social media and television on the tattoo industry and individual artists' careers.
