In this episode of "Chats and Tatts," host Aaron Della Vedova interviews tattoo artist Mike Boyd. The episode begins with a discussion of Franz Marc's artwork, "The Tower of Blue Horses," which inspired Boyd. They continue with a discussion of Boyd's art style and his decision to pursue his unique Picasso style of tattooing. Despite potential criticism, the Cubism artistic movement that inspires his designs has proven to be desired by many around the world. The conversation also touches on social media, modern health, and cultural opinions. Check out Boyd's killer mushroom tattoo he rips on Aaron Della Vedova during the show.
