“INK’D 4 LIFE” Way of Life
A Letter from the Editors
The “INK’D 4 LIFE” Magazine and movement represent the generation of people who believe that the present tattoo era is an undeniable way of life. We are a Charlotte, NC tattoo magazine that will reshape this industry by producing real stories about real people. The purpose of this movement is to highlight the rapidly emerging “in crowd” of the tattoo world by providing a seasonal print out and space that will give exceptional recognition to top Tattoo Artists, Pin-Up Girls, Tattoo Models, Miscellaneous Professionals, Athletes, Fashion Designers, and Recording Artists. Our goal is to eventually establish a global network of tattoo awareness and to illustrate the expressive nature of the tattooed world.

William D. Martin (Editor-In-Chief)
We believe that tattoo artistry provides an outlet for personal, unique illustrations of life journeys. All of who we are, the things we love and cherish, and our past struggles and regrets can be found on our bodies in INK! This movement is, thus, dedicated to the radicals and introverts of the tattoo society! We must continue to go against the grain of the mainstream industry and defeat all odds! The ink that has been willfully etched into our skin is an indication of our dedication to this art form. The “INK’D 4 LIFE” generation is here and we continue to grow steadily, like an infection with no cure! Our self-expression is mandatory and we don’t give a f--- if you like it, or not!
Salute to all of our “INK’D 4 LIFE” family and soldiers who are addicted to the INK!
Stay Ink’d,
The Editors
