I'm Da De . Welcome to L A and scripted from the broken art tattoo parlor in Atwater Village as we take a colorful look at the art of ink . Now , if you live in , so it's hard to find someone who doesn't have at least one tattoo .
Man , I had been a professional artist already so I knew what commercial projects paid and tattooing is way harder than those jobs and tattooing was one third of the money . And I was like , man , if I do anything , I'm gonna change that , I'm gonna give the artist in LA a raise , you know , growing up in L A , I've been inspired by so many different people , so many different ethnicities and we all kind of borrow from each other . I take this experience and the tattoos and all the street culture and that's the heaviest influence in my art .
From hot spots and hidden gems to lots of local flavor . It's your guide to L A the unscripted way . And tonight we're getting inked .
I wanted the stadium with some , with the piece of L A because it , it's just , it's home . I didn't grow up in L A but it just Dodgers is home to me . I saw his Dodger work and I knew he was the guy who had to do my tattoo .
You know , this whole studio I'm in , I , I seen it before it manifested . I sketched it 10 times here in Santa Monica . It's where Hollywood meets the water .
