Senthil Arcot Govindraj

The origin of skindeep! Senthil always had a flair for tattoos; it all began in 2002 when he got a tattoo of a sun on a footpath by a cobbler cum tattoo artist! It was terrible! Realizing then that Bangalore needed a good tattoo artist at a time when there were practically none, he began in full vigour to learn the art, making his own machines from electric shavers to sewing machines when there were no tattoo equipment dealers in Bangalore. He pursued art at Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath, but found no medium to express himself like he could on skin, Skindeep was born in 2007.
