Meet the Cast of Ink Master Season 13

Check out the artists competing on Ink Master: Turf War

During the finale of season 12, Ink Master teased that their 13th season would be a Turf War, bringing together artists from the East, South, Midwest and West regions of the United States. On November 12th, the cast has officially been announced and we can’t wait for the battle to begin. (Cue Dave Navarro) “This season on Ink Master” 20 top tattooers from around the country are battling it out for the title of Ink Master, a $100,000 and of course, a feature in Inked Magazine. We’re happy to introduce you to this season’s artists and give you a sneak peek at the season, which premieres on January 7th, 2020 at 10/9C on Paramount Network.

I got asked to do a #alfredhitchcock sleeve representing the five movies they loved the most. So I went with a #retro vibe and just had fun with it. This is the first of a few sessions to come. Really happy with the progress so far and don’t you love those poppy blends from @industryinks !!! This was done at the @dallastattooexpo hanging with some rad buddies from @texasinkedmagazine along with many other talented ppl. I might have grabbed an award for this one as well . @alfredhitchcockofficial @alfred__hitchcock @vitalitreetattoo @inkjecta @legacytattoolounge @catdaddycustoms @ghosttattoosupply @blackclaw @fytcartridges #emeralds #horror #suspense #color #pop #pretty #arm #dallas #texas #collegestation #InkMaster #industryinks #texasinked #bryantx #legacytattoolounge #bold #dots #dotwork

I got to do a fun piece a little while back, based on a very personal piece that a friend of mine made. She felt that it represented her for a number of reasons and asked for my spin on it. This is what I did. The inspiration and @_illoh original painting is the 2nd photo pictured here. #madeforartists #cheyennetattooequipment #solnova #oklahomatattooartist #surrealismtattoo
