Al Ray - Apprenticeship Student &
Paramedic - Queensland, Australia  
This would be a message to those how
wish to formulate a good foundation in professional
tattooing and develop strong techniques.
I am an Advanced Care Paramedic as well as a Registered
Nurse in Queensland Australia.
I have only now been tattooing for a very short time and
watched Miami Ink religiously to learn anything I could,
until coming across the International School of Body art. I
decided to join an apprenticeship and obtain this talked
about DVD set. These DVD’s are easy to follow for anyone,
combine with written readings are not only informative but
are a detailed structure, formulated to develop professional
tattooists. Gary Jr, has also been an excellent support
person and has always been there to answer any question I
had produced. As I train many student Paramedics throughout
Queensland Australia I know well, that all people learn on
many different levels but, I believe that this combine
visual (DVD’s), academic readings (written reading) and
personal psychological support via video conferencing /email
is an outstanding / winning combination. This certification
course is a great step towards becoming a great tattooist
and as all people are different these DVD’s can even help
those that have been tattooing professionally, strengthen
their existing style and techniques.
Kind Regards,

My Name is Taje Boyden; I am a graphic
art student in Utah and father of three.
Not long ago our legislation had made
my school drop my major and this had left me in a bad
position. I was very skeptical about my next move and how
to accomplish my next career choice. I have always been an
artist, hung out with other tattoo artists and underground
artists but I never really liked the social politics that
came with apprenticing formally under these friends. My next
course of action was to find a school that could fit my life
and would give me the results I needed to make a career in
tattooing; the only problem was “where could I go to get the
training I needed to succeed in this industry”? Finding The
International School of Body Art was a god sent. I only
realized what I was getting into after I bought the course.
I had a good feeling about it but I was still a little
afraid of spending that much money on line without knowing
these guys personally. Wow! I received a personal email from
Gary (my instructor) before I got my DVD’s. He set me up on
the ground running.
Between the test
material and DVD’s I learned so much more about tattooing
than I ever could working as an apprentice at a shop. These
guys just poured out information that is critical to the
trade. Something you would need to wait years for slaving in
a shop traditionally.
Because of this
program I feel confident in the trade enough to start my own
shop. I open in less than a month. Not only have I passed
the course but also I still have Gary to talk to (which has
not only given me the right tools to tattoo, but has helped
me to get my shop ready for business). Is not the point to
spend money on something like this to make money in return?
This has been the best money I have ever spent on schooling
with quicker results toward a career than traditional
college. (I am not saying that it is a replacement for
college but dollar for dollar this investment has put money
back into my pocket quicker and I have another trade under
my belt (in this economy) to use in the workforce. I would
recommend this program to anyone who is interested in body
art and wants to make clean money doing it. You really can’t
get this kind of training or information anywhere else
unless you actually apprentice at a shop for many years. I
am more than happy to give this testimonial.
Thank you all at
International School of Body art. Taje. Ps. it would be
awesome if your course were apart of a college program. You
already have the stuff to do it…

I
searched a long time for a course like this one, I was a
little skeptical at first because I thought it was too good
to be tru..a tattoo apprenticeship for $500.00 with
certificate of completion! Gary will answer all your
questions quickly. This course has it all , all you need is
the desire to be a tattooist. This course teaches all you
will need to know. why we use the different needles, what
shading does for a tattoo, highlighting a tattoo….just so
much info. This is a great teaching DVD set. Thank-You Gary
for everything you have done for me.

I have been tattooing for a while
now, although was some what familiar with tattooing and
its ins and outs, there is always things to learn, even
if I where someone famous like Kat, I would still
suggest getting these dvd's. They helped me
tremendously, and I am sure they will help anyone who
chooses to purchase these dvd's. I just wanted to show
you my first portrait after watching your videos...

Hi, I am Jonathan Cherry,
I recently began the International School of Body Art's
Tattoo Internship Course. The internship is the most
informative and educational class I have ever seen. Any time
I need something or have a question someone is always there
to lend a hand. Before I started the class I had
little knowledge of how much really goes into the tattoo
process. I kind of new the basics or so I thought, until I
started studying the material. I soon realized there was so
much I was missing that I couldn't stop reading and watching
the movies. I would suggest this course to everyone going
into the tattoo field and recommend they choose this class
over any other. I feel so much more confident and informed
now. Hopefully you will too. Thanks Again ISBA , JD Cherry

I have been doing tattoos for over a year now. It all
started the day my daughter turned 18. She went to get her
first tattoo. I watched so close I think the guy wanted to
throw me out. I kept asking questions. He kept answering. He
was born into the trade unlike me. Then he looked at me and
said, "Do you know how to paint?" I said yeah I do a lot of
painting. He said if you can paint, you can tattoo. So I got
on-line and the research started. I read and read until my
eyes popped out of my head. Then I got smart and started
watching youtube...(ok so not the smartest) So many artist
with so many different ideas. I then came across one who
made great sense. Tattoo fruit and then you will be able to
tattoo a human. So I ordered my machine. I have two J-Frame
machines and standard power supply. I bought a million
grapefruit and bananas and went to town. I couldn't believe
what I could do. Sooooo....My daughter decided she wanted a
tattoo on her foot. She had me do it on the banana and it
turned out great...That was the biggest learning experience
of my life...Do Not Use a Foot as your first tattoo. It
looked beautiful when it was done. I was so proud and
actually enjoyed the little bit of torture my daughter
endured...but don't tell her that. So I did more and they
looked good. I was proud of my work, but there was something
missing...I had never done color or shading of any kind and
decided I wanted to apprentice. I know I am not suppose to
talk about other artist, but...The ones around here are not
anyone I would want to apprentice under. Then I ran across
your site. I will be honest. I was a little leery at first.
I did a lot of checking around and asking around on chat
boards....I did my homework. So after much begging. My
husband said buy it and I did. He even bought me a great
massage table to do tattoos on because the chair I was using
was not the best. Gary. I only have one tattoo and it was
from when I was a rebellious 21 yr old...I also have my
tongue pierced. People never believe me when I say I am an
artist...YOU DO Tattoos NO Way. Sweet little country
christian girl does tats. So I have probably bored you to
death and you know more about me than you wanted. I have
learned more from you in two days than I have the whole year
of Internet research and books and other people in the area
who do tats. Thank you and you are not a scam...And from
what I can tell your messages are not computer generated, so
you must be a real person. If you looked at my facebook you
also know that I am attending Kaplan University to become an
accountant, I am a mother to 4 girls 2 step daughters, an
adopted son and will never grow up because I am also a Toys
R Us kid (front end manager)...Life is never boring around
me.
Thanks a MILLLION for putting this all together...I have to
let you know, I will put work out that is as awesome as
yours. BTW Beaker is over the top awesome.
Katie Summers.
