Tattoo artist and father of three, Tim Francen.
Hello.
I began life in 1974, of course since then a few changes have taken place.
I started tattooing
in 1992, with Steve Arnett (Wildman) of Wildmans Tattooing and Body Piercing out of Fort Wayne Indiana. Since then Tattooing
has become not only a part of my life, but a part of my being.
In 1997 I joined the United States Marine Corps, and
was stationed with 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Division out of Camp Pendleton California. Being a US Marine was an amazing experience
as a Tattoo Artist. I had the chance to see Tattooing all over the world. Both good and bad.
Our shop was based out
of Northeastern Indiana for many years. In 2005 however sadly my mother was involved in a fatal car accident, this event
changed my families life greatly. My father was also taken in a car accident as well when i was 4 years old.......
After my mothers death I moved my Family and business to Lafayette, Indiana where we had the chance to help many people, not
just with tattoo, but through friendship, and charity as well.
In 2009 however due the changing economy, and life in general I made the decision to return to military service................
The US ARMY to be specific..............
............I cannot say that the Army has been as good to me as the Marine
Corps, but it is what you make of it.
The
shop will be next located in Washington State, near Fort Lewis. I look forward to being a part of the Pacific Northwest. Original
design is my primary focus. I attempt to ensure that every soul that my colors enhance is as unique as the person is themselves.
After all tattooed people are more colorful. Thank you.
