hogg Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Check out this short video on one of my favorite tattooers (featuring another favorite, Bob Roberts): I've said before that Matt has a bit of a Big Liebowski vibe, but now I realize that that comes across as a bit unkind (or at the very least, sells him short). He's both passionate and compassionate, and that comes through in this piece. kimkong, rozone, Shaun1105 and 28 others 31 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6396-matt-arriola-uncommon-asshole/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

CABS Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Thanks for sharing Ross. I credit you for putting me on to Matt.

Hands On Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Thanks for sharing Ross. I credit you for putting me on to Matt. He's on my short list of tattooers I need to visit. Do it! I'm pretty sure he's a regular at the SOG convention, if the I5 is too daunting. ;) Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6396-matt-arriola-uncommon-asshole/#findComment-117377 Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely part of the plan. Just going in order of said plans. He guest spots up here from time to time too.

I'm only going to Spotlight when I have a pretty lady to tag along. I know Mr Bob Roberts loves the pretty ladies, as do I. And when I do go to Spotlight, the goal is to walk out with two tattoos. One from Matt and one from Bob.

Cork Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Never realized how much he looks like David Duchovny. I have an issue of TAM that he has an interview in and I enjoyed the read as much as the video. Thanks for posting. Shout out to @heathenist, his tattoo at 1:59. kimkong 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6396-matt-arriola-uncommon-asshole/#findComment-117384 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlaryMilberg Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Great video, thanks for sharing. @heathenist I can't imagine how honored you are to have that Jesus tattoo. Every time I see it, I'm pumped.

rozone Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Matt's easily one of my favourite people I've met through tattooing. I'm so happy that this video exists and highlights what a rad dude and amazing tattooer he is. He's definitely a unique / entertaining character, but I'm proud to call him a friend.

Scott R Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 haha guys I felt like he was in a group of many good tattooers on west coast until I saw @hogg getting a tattoo from him and it was pure badass. He made my relatively short list(6) when time came to book a chest eagle. I will definitely try to book with him at some point. edit watched video and yeah cool stuff good vibe CABS, hogg and Reyeslv 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6396-matt-arriola-uncommon-asshole/#findComment-117482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogg Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 @Scott R, I wish I had that eagle on my chest. He's definitely the man for the job. He did that one on my hamstring in about 90 minutes.

Nick W Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Kind of a related bump, but Matt is going to the Pacific Northwest? I think it's Boise...though does anyone know for sure where? I would love to get work done by him.
