Hello! My name is Brian, and I’m the person behind Etattoo.net. I’m a proud father of three amazing children, living in the vibrant city of Atlanta, Georgia. This is a special place for me because it’s where I grew up, started my family, and also where my love for tattoos really came alive.
Etattoo.net is more than just a website, it’s a magazine for anyone who loves tattoos. We cover everything about tattoos: from the latest news, trends, and styles, to ideas, artist spotlights, reviews, and more. Whether you are thinking about your first tattoo, planning your next one, or just love tattoo culture, this is the place for you.

I started Etattoo.net back in 2009. Back then, I was just a tattoo enthusiast who wanted to share my passion with the world. I spent countless hours reading, learning, visiting tattoo studios, and talking with amazing artists. My dream was to create a space where people could find inspiration, get honest advice, and celebrate tattoos as art.
Life has a way of surprising us, though. After a few years of running the website, I faced some personal challenges that forced me to take a break. It wasn’t an easy time. For more than 10 years, I stepped back to focus on my family, my health, and navigating life’s ups and downs. I learned a lot during that time about patience, resilience, and the importance of following your heart.
Now, I’m back, and more passionate than ever. Etattoo.net is returning stronger, brighter, and bigger. This isn’t just my project, it’s for everyone who loves tattoos. It’s a space to celebrate creativity, to learn new things, and to connect with a community of tattoo lovers from all over the world.
One of the things I love most about tattoos is how personal they are. When I look at a tattoo, I don’t just see ink on skin, I see a story, a memory, or a feeling frozen in time. That’s why Etattoo.net is more than a blog. It’s a magazine, a guide, and a community. Here, we share:
- Tattoo News: Stay up-to-date with the latest happenings in the tattoo world, including conventions, new styles, and celebrity tattoos.
- Tattoo Ideas: Find inspiration for your next tattoo, from tiny minimalist designs to big, colorful masterpieces.
- Artist Spotlights: Learn about the people behind the ink, the talented artists who turn ideas into reality.
- Reviews & Recommendations: Discover tattoo products, aftercare tips, and tools that make tattooing safer and better.
- Tattoo Meanings & Symbols: Dive into the history and significance of your favorite designs.
I also want Etattoo.net to be a place for families and young people to learn about tattoos safely. I write in a way that’s easy to understand, even for my own children. My youngest is five, and if he can understand a story about tattoos, then I know I’m doing it right! Tattoos might seem complicated, but at their heart, they’re really just stories that we carry with us everywhere we go.
Being a father has changed the way I see tattoos. I want my children to grow up knowing that tattoos are about expression, creativity, and respect for art, not just something adults do because it looks cool. I hope Etattoo.net can inspire them, and anyone else who visits, to appreciate tattoos as a form of art and culture.
Returning to Etattoo.net after more than ten years feels like coming home. I’m excited to share my experiences, my knowledge, and my love for tattoos with the world again.
Whether you’re here for tattoo news, searching for your next design, or just curious about the world of tattoos, Etattoo.net is here for you. My goal is simple: to create a place where tattoo culture is celebrated, stories are shared, and inspiration never runs out.
Thank you for being part of this journey. From 2009, through the long break, and now into this new chapter, Etattoo.net has always been about passion, creativity, and community. I’m thrilled to have you here, and I can’t wait to grow this magazine with you.
