Brandon's Bio - Brandon's Tattoo Gallery

Hello, my name is Brandon Montano and I am "One wild and crazy guy!" Being the youngster of the shop I spend my time trying to grow facial hair. When I am not strategically placing ink into someone's skin, I tend to my family. Oh yeah, you heard right, family. I am quite the family man, changing diapers, washing dishes, that's me. I have a little toddler running around and a baby on the way, so needless to say, my day is never over.

I spend my mornings diving the fine oceans of Monterey, where I frolic with the seals and swim with the fishes. Upon exiting, I look like a Mossman allowing me perfect time to scare the locals. Then I go home and make my boy laugh and watch cartoons. I try and make my wife's life as least stressful as I can. Then it's off to work, Creative Visions is the place for me. We book appointments and take walk-ins, all-in-all, I try to make everyone I tattoo as comfortable as possible. When I am not tattooing, I turn to the drawing board and get further appointments' designs out of the way. I have no problem with custom work, in fact, I encourage it. That way people get what's really on their mind and in the long run... enjoy.

As for my tattoo career goes, I started rather early. My brother was my first influence, He showed me some tattoos that he had done in the past. I used to draw all throughout my life so I took what knowledge I had and improved on it. I went to a tattoo parlor with a friend one time and just looked at the designs on the wall. I kept my thoughts open when drawing and put together a portfolio. Once I turned eighteen I went in to get my tongue pierced and that started my path to ink.
