Paul Booth

After devoting nearly twenty years of his life to the art of tattoo, where his is revered for his efforts to elevate the medium into the realm of fine art, Paul Booth has become a household name. His unparalleled dedication to the evolution of his craft has garnered him numerous awards around the globe, top tier magazine features (among them, many cover stories), public and television appearances including CNN, MSNBC, DISCOVERY, A&E, TLC, MTV and more.
Through his deep involvement in organizations such as The National Arts Club one of the oldest and most respected art institutions in the Nation Booth is continually driven to help push the tattoo industry forward in as many ways as possible. In 2000, he created an international art movement called The ArtFusion Experiment with Filip and Titine Leu, world-renowned tattooists from Switzerland. ArtFusion succeeded and continues to unite leading tattoo artists from around the world to create oneofakind works of art. Booths masterful paintings and macabre tattoo art is notable for its aggressive nature, and, as such, has been in high demand among dark art and tattoo enthusiasts for decades, including numerous major bands in the metal scene such as Slayer, Slipknot, Pantera, Down, Lamb of god and many more. In 2002, Rolling Stone Magazine featured Booth and proudly crowned him The new king of rock tattoos.
A rolling stone himself, Booth cant stop moving, and has recently stepped into the arena of film. His directorial debut, the awardwinning feature documentary The ArtFusion Experiment, continues to extend the reach and success of the movement he created. As a director and lifelong horror fan, he finds film to be an exciting and fresh form of expression. His experimental, pseudo-documentary Paul Booth's Last Rites: Volume I deftly illustrates his unique, twisted vision. And, yes, he still enjoys tattooing!
Paul became an entrepeneur at the age of fifteen when he opened his own sign making shop, after that he tried everything from airbrushing to being a repo man. After he got his first tattoo (his daughter's name) he decided he decided to learn more about the medium. The rest is history. Paul has been tattooing for over sixteen years now, and in that time he has tatooed many celebrities, including: Slayer, Slipknot, Pantera, the Undertaker (of WWE fame), Superjoint Ritual, and the list goes on. He was dubbed "The New King of Rock Tattoos" by Rolling Stone Magazine. Booth is considered a master of the art form and has found international acclaim with innumerable tattoo awards, heavy industry press and a global cult following. Paul's pioneer spirit has helped to bridge the gap between tattoo artists and the mainstream art world.
