Len-John Sanders

With a strong attraction to tattoos from a very early age, Len-John got and made his first few tattoos while still in high-school with a crudely home-made tattoo machine. A few years later he served a traditional 2 year apprenticeship under the team at Handstyle Tattoos in the northern suburbs of Joburg.

 

After completing his apprenticeship he spent some time traveling and working at various tattoo studios and is now the owner and resident artist at Timeless Electric Tattoo in the heart of Braamfontein, Johannesburg.
