Vargas Again

I know that in the past I’ve briefly mentioned my admiration for tattooist Valerie Vargas and that once already I’ve posted a short video profile/interview with her.  Well, a couple of months back I was walking around London and soon realised that I was standing in front of Frith Street Tattoo where Valerie works.  Let me tell you that it was no easy task just walking on and not being able to get tattooed by someone I consider to be one of the best tattooists working today.  Her work continues to be on my mind even now and so I decided that if there isn’t yet enough word out there about this wonderful tattooist, then maybe there needs to be more.  Here’s a fairly lengthy interview done with Valerie from 2011 when she was in California.
