Bob Tyrrell is a famous tattoo artist who started his career in an unusual way. Growing up with an artist father, Bob was inspired to pursue a career in art, but initially chose music, spending 15 years in heavy metal bands and working in a factory. At almost 30 years old, Bob got his first tattoo and was captivated by the art of tattooing, completing his sleeves and a full back tattoo within a few years. Returning to drawing and taking a few art classes, he decided to learn to tattoo. He gained an apprenticeship at Eternal Tattoos under the guidance of Tramp and Tom Renshaw, and at 34 began tattooing full-time. After six years at Eternal, he now travels, attending tattoo conventions and guesting at various salons. Although he wants to travel less to devote himself to painting and fine art, his passion for tattooing keeps him active. Bob expresses his gratitude to everyone who helped him become a better artist, including his father, Paul Booth and many others, thanking them for their continued inspiration.
