Clark North Tattoo

Clark North is a household name in the tattoo community. Over the last fifteen years or so, Clark has been profiled, quoted, and featured in such publications as Tattoo, Flash, Tattoos for Men, Savage, International Tattoo, and Tattoo Arts as well as featured and quoted in USA Today, The Travel Channel, and A&E's reality show Inked.
Clark got his start well over thirty years ago when he began doing his first tattoos on himself and friends as a teen. In his early days he was helped out by Mark Mahoney (then at "the rose" on the pike in Long Beach, California) and occasionally Mike Brown. Clark was tattooing illegitimately thru the '80s and did not legitimately enter the professional side of the business until he was sent to Rick Walters by Mark. From the early to mid '90s, Rick taught Clark to design, paint, and be a professional tattooer. Clark soaked up everything around him and was hired on by Kari Barba as a custom artist in her Anaheim shop called Outer Limits, where he worked from 1995 to 2004. His last two years with Kari Barba were spent planning, designing, setting up, and managing the Costa Mesa, California, side show-themed shop which opened in 2002. Since 2004 Clark has been in Las Vegas, Nevada, at Hart & Huntington for walk-ins and at Stay True Tattoo for custom tattooing appointments.
