One of my favorites MIKE GIANT

Sorry I been away, it's been a really busy these past weeks. I'm booked until Dec. with appointments so I been on my grind. Reading alot of books, doing alot of drawing, and I've been dreaming about painting again. I was doing a google search on one of my favorite artist tonight and found a dope ass interview with the legend himself, cool ass MIKE GIANT.This artist inspires me in many ways. Coming from a graffiti backgound, then to tattooing and now owner and designer for one of the nicest clothing lines out REBEL 8 (on my Top friends on myspace).I hope this interview inspires you like it has me. Many Blessings, Miya Bailey

The Lastest VIDEO Interview with PBA 30

Check out the video of segment that aired lastnight on PBA 30 in ATL.

Shout outs to: Jack, Phil, and Dirk

Dirk Hays, owner of East Atlanta Tattoo, Miya Bailey, a partner in City of Ink, and Phil Colvin, owner of Memorial Tattoo, are long-time tattooers. But don’t pigeonhole them. They’re all accomplished painters as well, and Dirk and Miya have even incorporated art galleries with regular exhibits into their shops.

On This is Atlanta, we talked to these three to get a sense of how an interest in art turns into a career in tattoos, what skills are required to move back and forth between skin and canvas, and what it’s like where the Atlanta tattoo scene meets the art world.
