Has Paolo Left Skin City?

Genki Sudo

...and if so does anyone know where he has gone? I liked his stuff and was thinking of getting some work done by him.

Orim

Haven't heard anything and they didn't announce it.

Having said that Danny seems to have moved up from apprentice. In other words I don't know.

I'm Marty will come on with the answers considering he is the Skin City PR manager :pac:

Genki Sudo

Cheers. I just noticed they are advertising for a full-time artist and Paolo's gallery seems to be taken down from the site, so it's looking likely he has left.

Where's Marty when you need him? He knows more about Skin City than the people who bloody work there. :pac:

Esoteric_

Yes, he's left. I just texted Marty and he told me. :pac:

:pac::pac: Yeh hes left ive been emailing them about getting more work on my arm done, hes left the country according to them . Damn it this means I will have had three diffeent artists work on my arm :mad:.

Ill more than likely still stick with Skin City though to get more done on it was hoping to get in next week.

That reminds me of an idea I had to build up something that consists of constantly getting different artists to just add their own thing. Kinda llike one of those stories where everyone writes the next. Must have a think about that again.

Might sound like a great idea but its a bit of a pain in the hole to be honest plus no artist really likes continuing on or having someone else continue on there work.

Is it only me, or is it a bit rude for an artist to up and leave without even so much as notifying clients with ongoing work. Even if they were informed that they have a certain amount of days to get in touch to have their piece finished?

Raging he's left 'cos was hoping to get a piece done by him this year

Any idea where's he's gone Marty?

Hes gone home for good and wont be back :( im raging myself was a big fan of his work and have a half finished piece. I supposse your right I would have hoped he would have messaged me to let me know before he went but these things happen and thepiece I have requires more than one sitting.

Aww. At least the other artists are good though, so they can finish it. Not the same as having Paolo do it of course.

FoxyVixen

Sucks he's gone alright, but as Lynda has pointed out, Skin City are never short of good artists

Just Like Heaven

Yeah it's not cool when artists leave without a giving everybody a bit of notice, but these things happen I guess.

Marty McFly

Yeh on a bright note I am going to pop into Michal in Skin City tomorrow so see what comes of that. Was messaging Paolo on Facebook and wished him the best of luck.

Cupcake_Crisis

Danny has left skin city too, he's up in tallaght ink now.

Just Like Heaven

What's going on? It's like when everybody left Snakebite.

Cupcake_Crisis

A mass exodus!

Had heard that was going to be his first port of call no dis respect to Tallaght Ink but thats a step down and he wont get anywhere near the exposure or education he was getting at Skin City.

Ill still be keeping an eye on his work though, see how he comes along.

As for the mass exodus Paolo just wanted to return home to Italy I cant blame him on that one, Danny wasnt happy being an apprentice anymore and felt he deserved better. There will be one new artist in Skin City on the 14th of January and possibly one more aswell.

FoxyVixen

Any idea who the new artists are? Seen the advertisement on facebook but nothing to indicate who they may have taken on.

Can't blame Paolo wanting to leave. When I was there last Feb he talked alot about Sardinia. Once the call of home hits a high level it's hard to ignore

Cupcake_Crisis

In fairness to Danny his work is quite good. I know him from around tallaght and have seen work he's done on people i know and a lot of it is really impressive. Definitely one to watch. But i do agree that such a local studio is a bit of a step down.

Exactly especially when that home is Italy.


No idea who the new artist will be all I know is hes Polish, and as for the other one no idea just got that ones hes still a maybe.

Yeh im with ya ive seen some of his work, and have met him a few times a real nice bloke. He has a lot of talent and I will keep an eye on his work just fear the move to a local studio could be a bad move for him but hopefully he proves me wrong.

FoxyVixen

Christ Skin City needs a woman in there, too much testosterone

Never know, could work the other way. Danny could be the making of Tallaght Ink

He could raise the profile of the studio, you never know!

Marty McFly

True he could be as I said I hope it goes well for him. I had a shortlist for my Turtles tattoo I want done , that included Rob Mulligan, Eimear Kearney , Paolo and Danny.

Paolos out , so ill still be keeping an eye on Danny.
