    miami ink artist Ami James hide show

    This tough guys is the most briliant guy out there!! same with his buds!! He is talented, charming, hot, heart warming!! Doesn't let his amotions interupt with his work.. tattooing is his passion!! He doesn't let anyone stand in his way of learning something new each day!! I believe during one of his vacations if he like to be in the middle of know wheres land to come up where we live!! lol it would make all us fans up in New York State happy, and to do tattoos for us ppl!! instead of coming to him and his buds for a day!! lol.. This guy looks like a sweet heart not a tough guy with a short temper like ever bio says about him!! Us fans love him and his work and his buds I wish them best wishes to all!!!

    A wonderful artist hide show

    Ami James is an extreamly talented artist. I wish that I would have gotten my tattoos from him. I see his work every tuesday on Miami ink, and I think it's just amazing and inspiring to see. How could anyone create such a beautiful image on a person's skin?? That's the sign of a true artist. His work looks like it's about to jump off the persons skin and come to life. That's how realistic it looks. I would be honored to be tattooed by Ami, but unfortunatly I live nowhere near Miami, so maybe one day I will get down there.

    Im from the Philippines. I enjoyed watching your show as I get fasinated by people who go to your shop for a tattoo and every tattoo have its story. You guys enjoy the work you are doing, the time and effort you put in every person for their tattoo. hide show

    I like the episode I watched about this guys who have a superman tattoo on his arms. The drag queen at night and a macho in daytime. Also the episode about this guy in a wheel chari who had an accident. He went to your shop with his buddy. I like the courage he has in life everthough ha has went thru a lot of pain. Good luck to him.
