Aaron Bell
In the early 80s, Aaron Bell found himself on a quest to learn as much as he could about the secretive and evasive world of tattooing. Starting out in the Punk scene that dominated Southern California's alternative landscape, his part-time tattooing quickly became his full-time passion. He began apprenticing with Bill Beach in 1993 after moving to Seattle, Washington. Bell never lost focus, and his big break came in 1994 when the secrets of seasoned professionals were the prize for being such a dedicated apprentice. Bell's story is much like that of traditional Japanese tattoo artists: there is a constant striving for perfection under a master whose hopes and dreams are to see his student surpass his own talents and abilities. Aaron Bell rose to meet that goal, and proof-positive is evident at his shop Slave to the Needle, which continues to be voted a top tattoo destination in the United States. There, he is immersed in a creative environment where he continues to gain knowledge through the talent and experiences of his co-workers. His tireless pursuit for perfection in all facets of tattooing has resulted in hundreds of awards and accolades.
