“It was very taboo for me to say, ‘I don’t want to go to an art college and become a tattoo artist,’"she said. “So I was told that I wouldn’t get anywhere with it or make any money with it and it was going to be a big failure.”and is now at the top of her field.It’s like an art boot camp. You’re just hanging out, drawing with people till all hours of the morning and cameras are in your face for 15 hours a day,” James said.Deanna James refers to her sketch as she tattoos a client.

Of the 10 resident tattoo artists on her team, 8 are women. She also offers a free service to tattoo nipples on women who’ve had mastectomies.
