Specializing in Japanese, neo-Japanese, and abstract art, Monsieur Gunn is a maestro of magnificent tattoos. His finely crafted designs, subtle shadings, and brilliant colors have earned him national renown, and practically made him into a local hero. His devotees are rabid about his work, and some will not consider anyone else when it comes to the body art that will live forever. A character himself, and a highly esteemed artist, Gunn puts the firepower into the Austin tattoo scene. |
