How many tattoos do youhave: 2, No Lies Just Love written across my wrists in white ink and Acceptancewritten on my right rib cage


Age when you got your firsttattoo: 24


Do you have a favouritetattoo: Both of my tattoos came from how I was feeling at that point in mylife, The one on my wrists though probably means the most to me as even now Ilook at it and it reminds me that the most important thing is to be with peoplewho love you and to free yourself from those who lie and hurt you


Any more tattoos planned?What? Where?: I am trying to decide on the exact wording but I want one downthe lower half of my spine which I want written in grey but haven’t decidedwhat exactly it will say


Favorite style oftattooing…background?: I don’t really have a favorite style, I think they areall individual.


Any other modifications?Piercing etc.?: Ears pierced and belly button and numerous scars from being acomplete klutz

Have you ever felt judged,prejudiced against because of your tattoos? Never most people are usually veryintrigued by the white ink more wrists I get lots of questions about it


What made you want to gettattooed?  I have always wanted to get a tattoo but it was a matter ofreally feeling connected to the tattoo and knowing that it was something that Iwould be happy to look at in 10 years’ time and not regret.

What is the meaning/storybehind it/them/each one? The “No Lies Just Love” on my wrist I had toyed withfor about a year, but after having a few months where my relationship didn’tfeel great and I was very unsure of what to do this tattoo felt like it spoketo me and told me that I should expect love and not lies and I remember thatwhenever I look at them and how I felt at that time and that I never want tofeel that way again. Getting “Acceptance” on my ribs was also a reminder thatwe can’t always control what goes on around us, behaviors, emotions and otherpeoples actions as I can sometime be somewhat of a control freak and need tolearn to accept the way things are.

A Drop Of Brad

Name: Brad Thompson

Age: 32

Tell me about yourself:

My interests include muscle cars, lowrider bikes, 50's clothing and culture, bmx riding and drinking with friends.

How many tattoos do you have: 3

Age when you got your first tattoo: 23

Do you have a favourite tattoo?:

My jack in the box because it was my first and still unique, I have not seen any others yet.

Any more tattoos planned?:

Yeah I might get my arms sleeved or a chest tattoo. Not sure what to get yet, I am still toying with ideas.

Favourite style of tattooing…background?:

I dont have a favourite style but I hate tribal tattoos on people that have no tribal background or history in there bloodline. Maoris have a strong tribal history and so do brazilians and africans but not bogan white dudes.

Have you ever felt judged, prejudiced against because of your tattoos?:

Not really, on the odd occasion I have been followed by a store security because I look suspicious but having worked in retail since having my tattoos it has not stopped me from sellng well and getting promoted. A lot of people even make positive comments on them.

What is your tattoo story?:

My first tattoo I got at Purple Haze was the jack in the box but at the time it was just the clown head in black and white. Then a couple of months later I wanted to make it bigger and came up with the jack in the box idea and got it done. Then I wanted colour so I had some copies of the design and mates and I would colour them in to work out what would look good. About a year later I wanted something car culture related

and retro looking and drew up the Lady Luck with flames, pistons, spark plugs and checkered flags.

The last one I had done just 2 weeks ago at Immortal Ink in Berwick and it is of my two girls' names and dates of birth. Pretty self explanatory there but I wanted it as big as possibly and manly looking. I have always liked the old style lettering but never had anything I would really want written on me for life until my girls came along.
