Paul Booth

Paul Booth is a world-famous tattoo artist working in his shop called Last Rites in New York City.

Biography

Paul was an entrepreneur at a young age, he started his own sign making shop at fifteen, after that he did everything between airbrushing and being a repo man. When he got his first tattoo, his daughter's name, his interest was piqued and he wanted to learn more about what there was to the medium. Paul has been tattooing for about sixteen years now, and in that time he has worked on multiple celebrities and rock bands, for example: Slayer, Slipknot, Mudvayne, Pantera, The Undertaker (of WWE fame), Superjoint Ritual, and the list goes on. He has recently been dubbed "The New King of Rock Tattoos" by Rolling Stone Magazine. Booth is widely considered a master of the art form and has earned international acclaim with innumerable tattoo awards, heavy industry press and a global cult following. Paul's pioneer spirit has helped immensely to bridge the gap that has kept tattoo artists out of mainstream art circles for decades. Favorite Mediums include Tattoo, computer graphics, clay, oil and acrylic paints. His wait list for his tattoo shop is over a 2 year wait.

The Art Fusion Experiment

Paul Booth has also aided in creating the Art Fusion Experiment(AFE). The AFE is a learning tool, exclusively catered to the tattoo artist. ArtFusion Camp affords the masters of skin art an opportunity to share their fine art skills with their peers on an intimate level. Most importantly, they must do so in an extreme creative environment. Any one artist could spend an hour detailing an element of a canvas and in the blink of an eye, another artist may step in and change it entirely. Though this presents the most frustrating element of the exercise, it is an integral part of the ego-cleansing process that is so inherent of ArtFusion Camp. As a result, a newfound unity develops between the artists.Through the chaos that is the ArtFusion Experiment, many harmonies reveal themselves
