Guido Baldini
Guido Baldini was on a quest for art from a very early age. Inspired by classic superhero comics as a young boy in the provincial town of Castel San Giovanni, a young Baldini lived among a wealth of Italian art. His artistic interests never waned, and when his travels led him to London and Amsterdam in the late «80s, he found himself enamored with tattoos and received his first by a Hell's Angel. After dropping out of college, Baldini began to get his own designs tattooed on his body by different artists. The fine reception to his own drawing skills then resulted in his company Rowdy Art, which specializes in murals, commercial, and residential interior design. Despite his design business, Baldini began tattooing with primitive equipment. Experienced tattoo artists put him in contact with a supplier that provided the tools he needed to open his first tattoo shop in Piacenza, Italy. The resulting success has afforded Guido Baldini the opportunity to be published in a number of internationally-distributed magazines where his commissioned work was visible to a world audience.
