Jonathan’s tattoos are known to be among the best, and he tattooed
(including but not limited to) The Cure, David Lee Roth, Vanilla Ice, Marilyn Manson, Johnny Depp and supermodels Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss.
His neo-tribal work and innovative full back-pieces made a stain on the
tattoo world, especially of a Mary Klinger painting that he tattooed on
the back of Luke Miller, one of his employees at Fun City. Featured in
tattoo magazines world wide were Jonathan’s first-of-a-kind tattoos of
Robert Williams and Joe Coleman paintings, which he copied immaculately
in loving tribute to his old friends and mentors, each tattoo looking
like the painting from which it came. Jonathan’s style is mainly
described as an old school approach to new school ideas. Keeping the
bold, thick, heavy handed style taught to him by Bob Shaw but using an
innovative roster of new art, breaking away from traditional sailor
flash, including his own work, which was much of the time tattooed on
large blocks of skin freehandedly, most of it, in the end looking like
the pipes in a wall, or the inside of a clock, interwoven and detailed. Read more about Jonathan Shaw at:http://www.prickmag.net/jonathanshawinterview.html
