- Careers
I am joined by Lee Guerrine, a tattoo artist originally from Ireland who now calls Canada home. Lee owns Rocky Mountain Tattoo with shops in Kelowna, BC and Lethbridge, AB.
In this episode, Lee and I discuss his introduction into art, as well as his beginnings as a tattoo artist which incredibly started at the age of 11. Using ingenius methods, he began tattooing on himself and some willing friends. From there, he was mentored before joining the military, where he began to hone his craft as a tattoo artist on other members of the military. Upon completing his service, he reconnected with his mentor and began to explore his options. Lee decided to come to Canada and has since opened two shops of his own, where he currently heads the team at his Kelowna location.
Lee provides insightful stories of his journey as an artist and as a man. He has dedicated himself to his personal development and has seen success follow his efforts. He gives helpful information on beginning your journey as an artist and covers a range of topics from starting out, to being a good team member and beyond. I am grateful for his time as he sheds light on a fascinating industry, one that he has really began to dominate through hard work and innovation. He is beloved by his team and now has begun to mentor rookie artists as they hope to follow in his footsteps.
