Noel has also been fortunate to have been to the U.S.A a few times,
where he stayed, worked and played in the state of Washington. He
is very grateful for Kristi Kilbourne and the crew at Lady Luck
Tattoo and Steve & Malisha at Tarot Tattoo to have been so open,
helpful and encouraging for all of his ideas and inventions.
Previously being a Telecommunications Technician for a couple of
decades, he is the know-all of everything technical in the studio.
He prides himself on being the creator of his rotary Messer Machines
which have proved themselves to be brilliant tattoo machines. Contact
Noel if you want to quiz him about them.
Noel is now residing in Spokane, Washington state in America, and is working at Lady Luck Tattoos with his friend Kristi Taylor. If you would like to contact him, you can reach him via email at noel@johnsonrvinc.com
