More DVD Testimonials!
More Testimonials!
Hi Keith
I watched your DVD and I just wanted to tell you it was awesome, you are a fantastic artist, and you did a great job with the DVD. I really like the way you filmed it, as well as your open and detailed dialogue about the ins and outs of the way you tattoo. Very informed and detailed! I really liked the inset of the palette as well as your source photo, very nice idea.
I think it’s a great leap forward that we now have access to resources such as your DVD, helping to educate other artists and improve this industry as a whole is a worthwhile endeavor.
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with those of us who are constantly looking for tips and hints and other ways to improve our own work. I’m looking forward to your Photoshop DVD as well!
Thanks! David

Keith Ciaramello's "keep it real" advanced techniques for realistic tattooing vol.1- pure awesomeness. 3 discs- 5 hours of inspiration and knowledge to help elevate your craft to the next level. I recommend it to anyone who wants to be a better tattoo artist.

Hey Keith,
Finally had a chance to watch the DVD. Thanks for sharing! Great to learn from an articulate, talented guy who is smart enough to have his someone else do the camera work. Appreciated the extra steps you took to kick this DVD out of the park. Painting with needles on skin - great to think of it that way thanks to your artistic approach.
I'll send you some pics once i can convince someone to let me try some of this stuff out on their skin.
Cheers,
Anthony
