"Once you're a pickle, you can never go back to being a cucumber again". I believe tattooing is in a fad stage and that in a few years things will calm down, people will be into some kind of laser tattoo or some crazy shit in a few years with all this technology. I think tattoos will at some point, become "old news" to the trend-followers and people find some other form of body modifications that maybe last 10 years or something reversible.
His little blurb from when he was tattooing the guy after Miami Ink was hilarious "There aint no cameras around buddy, you don't have to tell me your story" lmaoooo
It's good to see other Artist brave enough to admit they are mostly self driven and taught. Tim you Rock and I would love to work next to you someday at an event or guest spot! JImmy V Double 0 ink Tattoos.
Great artist, supreme tattooist and a down to earth man. Ihave many tattoo's by some great artists but Tim (in my opinion) is head and sholders above them all. Want him to tattoo a design i have from a young lady tattooist from Purplebird tattoo's who is now dead, i think Tim can do it justice.
Im kinda disappointed about how they don't care about the story behind the tattoo's they are doing. I get that its work, but dont be so heartless and laugh at them.

He has such a beautiful and genuine perspective on his art and the practice of it. It's inspiring. I can only hope to one day cultivate the awareness and presence that he has and bring it to my art.
I grew up with this guy and I had the privilege to be taught by his Father how to surf months before his death...I knew his family and we were tight...I was amazed to see that he is now a world-renown tattoo artist !!!!
this guy is really cool, i got to meet him in Inglewood, CA at the Hollywood Park tattoo conv on june 26, and he really does mean it when he takes walk-ins, much love tim h.
I have two pieces by Hendricks and a day doesn't go by that someone stops me to compliment the work. I just wish he was accessible. I saw him once at "love hate" in Miami and once at "gold rush" in CA. I'm looking for him to do a third, a portrait of my daughter. just don't know how to reach him anymore. someday I hope!!
@blokhed15: thanks... i actually got out to see him in costa mesa a week ago at "gold rush tattoo" and he did an AWESOME portrait of my 2 year old daughter. he was taking appointments for 3 days only and i got the last slot!
this was awesome.
