Judybats Pain Makes You Beautiful —The Gavin Report Hayley Nicholas Features Writer Upon entering David Breedlove's home, nothing really seems odd or out of place. Magazines are spread in fans on the coffee table next to the couch. A dalmation puppy lounges under the kitchen table. But there's a bright red reclining chair of the sort you might find in a hair salon. If you inhale deeply enough, there's an aroma of disinfectant reminiscient of a doctor's office. And on a shelf behind the kitchen table is a tiered display of inks of every possible shade and hue in little squeeze bottles. The final clue that perhaps David Breedlove's home is not like every other home is the activity occuring at the kitchen table. As the dalmation snoozes, Breedlove sits and, with a tattoo gun balanced across the backs of his fingers, touches up a drab rose on his sister's right shoulder. "I like touch up work for two reasons," David states above the hum of the gun, which is akin to the sound of a hyperactive sewing machine. "It's a challenge, and it's fixing something that needs fixing. It feels good." Breedlove has been in the professional body art business in Bryson City for only a few months, but his interest in and love of tattoos stretches back much farther. At the tender age of fourteen, he and a couple of friends began playing around with tattoos and homemade tattoo guns. "I had several that needed covering up before I was old enough to go into a parlour and get a tattoo for real,"he says. Breedlove cites this fact as a reason he takes such satisfaction in retouching old tattoos. The noise of the gun pauses, and David spritzes the work on his sister's shoulder with a spray bottle of disinfectant and wipes away the excess ink with a paper towel. The color he is adding is bright, and the lines are fine but strong. Time has passed since David was old enough to go into a tattoo parlour. His arms are alive with ink designs. Snakes, wizards, skulls and scorpions vie for attention while an eyeball peers from a peeled back section of skin on his wrist. The eyeball is his, work that is, and gives testimony to the quality of his own art. "The idea behind a tattoo is to make it look real," he says, exchanging glances with the eyeball on his wirst. "I'm in my home," he says. "I'm not rushed to make a buck." Breedlove averages about six tattoos a week, which is boomingbusinessfora town the size of Bryson City. Most otitis flash work, body art rendered from pictures brought in or drawn by his customers. David states that one of his main goals is perfecting his own design style. His work proves that he is well on the way if not there already. Mixing white ink into the red he's been working with, David says, "I highlight almost everything." Frowning at the pink he'smade, he adds a little more white. "Highlighting isn't the kind of work you'll get at the Harley Rally or at the flea market," he states and begins shading rose petals. Almost eighty percent of the bodies being tattooed these days belong to women. Breedlove's clientele reflect this trend. He attributes this change of events to the death of the stigma surrounding tattoos. It's not sucha rebellious action anymore.
