The Eternal Images of Randy Smith

Hello everyone,my name is Randy Smith. I happen to own a couple of shops in central New York called Eternal Images. I began tattooing profesionally in 2001, after an 8 year stretch in the Army. I have always been interested in tattoos.

In fact I remember seeing my uncle's tattoos when I was about 5,and thought they were just the coolest thing in the world. About 6 years later I tried to give myself a tattoo in the school library (funny story). After that, I did the hand poked thing, then the home made machine thing,then the "starter kit" thing, and finally the professional thing.

I try to work in any style my client wants,but I love the challege,and the classy look of black and gray.I especially love the challenges that come with true photo-realism, from animals to people, I strive for that wow reaction.I also like to do shows and hang out with other artists and make new friends.

I have to give credit to my wife and kids for keeping me in check,and putting up with me (I'm really just a big kid trapped in this body).Without their love and support,I wouldn't be able to do what I do.

So enjoy the site, sign the guestbook to let me know what you think, e-mail me if you want to know more. Thank you in advance for checking me out, and a special thanks to Sparky for giving me my 15 minutes to shine.
