No Flash, All Original Art
Daniel Flores aka DTM, DaCreativeGenius is a 20 year Tattoo Veteran who started his tattoo career in 1995 when he walked into West End Tattoo and bragged on his portfolio.
The West End Tattoo experience lasted 2 weeks, but that was enough to give DTM the push to follow the Path of the Tattoo Artist. Later on, DTM picked up a business card from Tattoos by SuperMan Tattoo Studio and there began the 18 month apprenticeship. By 1997, DTM and Lord Yatta (who is a tattoo artist in Tri-Cities Tattoo) opened Vantage Pointe Studios in SouthWest ATL and the focus was to bang out original art, no flash tattoos. At that time, no Tattoo studio in Atlanta was doing this. At the end of 2005 Vantage Pointe Studios celebrated 8 years in the Atlanta Tattoo and Art Scene having held monthly art shows for over 50 artists, all curated by Lord Yatta, ending at the Ponce De Leon location in Midtown. In 2015, ten years later, DTM opened his private practice to the loyal collectors who have supported his skills. Since then, awesomely talented artists have made their home here including Corey Oates and Wayman Humphrey. Welcome to Veterano Tattoos. |
