    I met Doc only last week but will never forget those few minutes with him talking knives and leather work, the fact he can immerse into conversation in some many areas is testament to his travels and passion in life, a truly inspirational man...

      He certainly is, but rather frail. No longer tattooing.
      If you are in Plymouth though, you will find him with his son Bill, at Union Street still and they will welcome you gladly!

  • @cliffbeer494
    @cliffbeer494 3 роки тому +6

    I've had 2 tatt's done by Doc and 1 by his son and although I think that Doc is the best tattoo artist ever i think that his son ain't far behind him with regards to pure artistic talent. They both have their own way of thinking about designs and if you ask them what they think is the best art for the area you want done they will both have a different but equally excellent suggestion as to what you should seriously consider getting. Now I'm back in Plymouth I can't wait to get back in the shop to get some more work done with them. We have a lot of tattoo parlours in Plymouth but Doc price and his son are without a doubt the best in the city and in my and many other peoples opinion the best in the south of England.
