This will be the premier Northern Hemisphere presentation after an acclaimed success in Melbourne, Australia, in July 2024. Join us for an enlightening four-hour seminar designed over the last five years specifically for tattooers who seek to elevate their craft through a deeper understanding of the mindsets andpsychology behind what we do. This presentation will explore the profound impact of tattoos on both the artist and the client, emphasizing the importance of intention, connection, and purpose in your work.

Renowned for his transformative impact on the industry, Jeff Gogue will lead us through a four-hour discussion, blending his perspective with practical craftsmanship, sharing personal stories and insights, and celebrating 25 years of tattooing. Together, we will discover how to see the larger picture of what we do and why we do it—understanding the true significance of your art and creating meaningful and lasting impressions for our clients and community.

Among the discussion points

• Mindsets and Psychology in Tattooing: We'll explore how deep psychological perspectives and mindsets play a role in the tattooing process. What mental approaches should both the artist and the client bring to the table?

• Symbolism and Storytelling Through Art: Tattoos often go beyond the skin—they tell stories. We'll dive into how symbols, metaphors, and imagery can convey powerful messages and personal narratives.

• Designing for Impact: Whether it's a small, intricate piece or a full-body design, the way you plan and layout your tattoos matters. We'll discuss techniques for designing everything from tiny tattoos to full coverage.

• Building the Artist-Client Relationship: Understanding your client is key to creating meaningful tattoos. We'll talk about how to foster a strong, communicative relationship between the artist and the client.

• Creating Your Brand as an Artist: It's not just about the art—it's about who you are as an artist. We'll cover how to develop your persona and market yourself effectively in the tattoo industry.
