Lokesh Verma - Tattoo Artist

India's first Award-winning, internationally experienced artist Lokesh is a veteran tattoo artist who was also one of the first people to start tattooing in India. But the journey has not been easy for him. He began his pursuit at nineteen. An MBA by qualification, he strove hard to purchase the gear, even taking up a part-time position of a DJ at a local bar.

Lokesh is a self-trained artist and travels all across the world to work at different shops and to attend tattoo conventions. Ever since he can remember, he has been fascinated with sketching. His exceptional gift, and him treasuring it in return, brought to him audience and prizes. At fourteen, he won the 1st prize in the Inter-Asia level painting competition in Japan, organised by Mitsubishi.

With a little help from willing and curious friends, not to mention his own physical self (he displays an almost mystifying ambigram on his left arm which is also the first tattoo he ever did) Lokesh set off to conquer the Art. Day and night of practice, search of ideas, commitment and resolve yielded their rewards. It would produce an amalgam of tattoo styles, ranging from traditional to new school and portraits. Personally, Lokesh enjoys realistic tattooing the most and specialises in Color and Black and grey.

He is guinness world record holder for - the most tattooed flags on body is 199 and was achieved by Guinness Rishi (India) and Tattoo Team - Lokesh Verma between July 2009 and February 2010. He is the 1st artist from Asia to teach in World's first Tattoo University in Italy (Academia Tie Polo).
