Today we’d like to introduce you to Danny Herna.
Hi Danny, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Since my childhood, I had liked to draw and paint but I never did it with any profit intention, it was always a love of art. My career as a tattoo artist began in Canada just a few months before the global pandemic, it all started with wanting to have an additional income. because I worked as a sanitation cleaner. My job was very boring and I had to spend most of the night there. My learning began with YouTube tutorials complementing the knowledge that I knew about painting and drawing.
It was frustrating at first because I had no knowledge of anything, I started tattooing a friend and after that, I started tattooing small things with a very cheap machine that I bought on Amazon. After that, I started buying more professional tattoo equipment and I moved out of my house to make it a studio, everything was going well, I tattooed and kept working, and suddenly my income from tattooing exceeded my income from work, and that was when I decided to quit my job to dedicate all my time to tattooing and do what I like.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
I do have some obstacles, first that I did not have a suitable place to tattoo. They kicked me out of the house where I lived, and my coworkers did not support me.
