Derek Hartmann, Derock to those who know him best, is a Neo-Traditional, dark image enthused artist who’s primary focus is set to the beat of whatever musical inclination he is fixated on at the time. With a heavy emphasis on black and grey work, Derek strives on becoming as versatile as the artists who have come before him. Coupled along with a needle in hand and headphone jack to the ear, Derek is always pushing himself to deliver his client their next top quality tattoo. Originally from the Midwest suburbs of the Metro Detroit area, Derek has made his way around the Colorado Rockies and back, now residing in Madison, WI. If there is one place he could live, it would be in the London surrounded landscapes of the old Victorian architecture.
