Amy Nicoletto was born and raised in southern New Jersey, where she completed a two-year apprenticeship and began her career as a tattoo artist six years ago. She moved to Los Angeles in 2008 and took up her post at American Electric Tattoo Company after her brief trial period at Kat's shop didn't pan out as expected.
Amy has always been enamored with tattooing. She was sixteen when a fellow classmate introduced her to the craft, and she's been hooked ever since. At eighteen, she got her first tattoo; an Anime devil that she still wears proudly. She enjoys the structure and detail of portraiture, Japanese, and traditional styles, but she's always up for a challenge.
Amy splits her free time between her son, Cameron, who lives in New Jersey, and her boyfriend, Michael, who lives in Scotland where she has gained a steady clientele.

I am co-owner and head artist at Foolish Pride Tattoo Co in St Petersburg FL  http://www.tjhal.com/

I currently am a contestant on Spike TV's Second season of INKMASTER

My name is Mark Matthews & I am a very fortunate man in the sense that I get the luxury of doing things that I love for a living. One of those things is tattooing and it has been an active passion of mine ever since I was introduced to it at the age of seventeen. I came into tattooing the hard way, self taught, but have luckily been blessed with the opportunity to work with some really good artists along the way of my tattoo career who have motivated, inspired & helped me become a better artist as I still, to this day, heed the lessons I've learned working alongside them.
I have been tattooing professionally for the past 14 years & have had a passion for art ever since I can remember. It is the only area of my world that has seen consistent effort from me since early childhood. Alongside tattooing, I am also proficient in the mediums of ink/watercolor, acrylic paint, pencil, prismacolor pencil, pen and ink, marker rendering & have recently started dabbling in oil paints. I am capable of many styles of tattooing & I'm always looking to have my creative limits pushed. I do my best to communicate well with my clients to insure that they are going to express through their tattoo EXACTLY what they want when they sit in my chair. So, if you are even entertaining a thought about getting a tattoo, come by and talk to me or give me a call. From small tattoos to sleeves or full back/body pieces, I'll be glad to help you make your idea a reality!

Watch me on Season 2 Inkmaster Oct 9th on Spike TV

Nick has always had a love for drawing, and in school each year, he would always sign up for as many art classes as he could. In high school he worked at a local sign shop that made New Orleans replica street signs and that's when he fell in love with both the city and it's pirates lore. He loves pirates so much that his tattoo studio is pirate-themed. Nick toyed with the idea of enrolling in art school, but when he got a tattoo apprenticeship right outside of high school, his fate was sealed and he's been tattooing ever since. Nick is clearly the "young gun" in this competition, but he says he doesn't have a message for his competition; rather he'll let his work speak for itself. Nick specializes in realism and portrait tattoos.

All of the years of writing graffiti has definitely impacted Justin's fascination with drawing letters. Lettering requires a certain skill that a lot of artists seem to never develop. He is not one of them. Justin takes his lettering seriously and gives nothing less that 100% on each and every design. His smooth strokes and steady hand have earned him a fantastic reputation among his clients and his teammates for being a class act at what he does. It also has set the foundation for his own personal style, being recognized and appreciated in the tattoo industry far and wide
