Ms. Deborah // msdeborahsfountainofyouth // This is the legendary tattoo artist, Ms. Deborah. She is the woman behind the beginning of Inksmith and Rogers. We spent the day listening to her truly captivating tales of tattooing in the 70’s, her lifetime friendship with Paul Rogers, making her own pigment, sterilizing needles and drunken drawing sessions in her kitchen with the true masters of tattooing. After fascinating us for hours with her wild history and her incredible tattooing knowledge, with tears in her eyes she thanked us for caring about her story and for making her feel like she still matters. Women like her with untold stories like hers are why I do this work. Thank you for inviting us in, Ms. Deborah. It is a genuine honor. To keep up with us on this project, follow
