You work full-time.
You’ve got bills, responsibilities, maybe a kid to get to school or a second job to survive.
You barely have time to eat lunch - let alone master tattooing on your own.
You’re not the problem.
The way tattooing is traditionally taught is.
That’s why Artist Hour was built for real life - not studio fantasy.

Before You Can Get Clients…

And before you can even step into a shop as a licensed professional tattoo artist...
You need a portfolio that proves you're ready.
You need to show clients and shop owners undeniable proof:
  • That your work is clean
  • That your shading has structure and will hold
  • That you know how to layout designs that work on skin
A clean, confident portfolio with this level of proof is the difference between:
  • Getting ignored or ghosted when you try to join a shop or get clients
  • Walking in practiced, prepared, and taken seriously as a professional

But most beginners don’t have that kind of portfolio, which is why…

Most People Who Want to Tattoo Never Get Close

Not because they aren’t talented.
Not because they aren’t serious…
But because they never get momentum.
They’re told to “just draw more.”
They bounce between random YouTube tutorials and Pinterest references.
They wait for a shop to give them a shot… and wait… and wait…
And eventually, they quit.
But not because they couldn’t do it.
Because no one ever showed them how to start where they are - with serious life commitments and a busy schedule.

You’ve Got a Dream.
But Life Keeps Getting in the Way.

  • You sit down to draw… but you’re already exhausted.
  • You finally get a free hour… and spend half of it figuring out what to do.
  • You wonder if you’re even improving - or just going in circles wasting time...
That’s not your fault.
It’s the system — one that wasn’t designed with you in mind.

What you need is a structure that adapts to you and your life.

This is Artist Hour

Not just a drawing habit.
Not a generic YouTube playlist.
Not a watered-down “how to draw” course.

Artist Hour is a 90-day portfolio-building system designed specifically for busy beginners who want to go pro.

We call it: The Tattoo Habit Stack™
A simple 3-step model that turns chaos into consistency:
1. Daily Task - Delivered to your inbox. No guesswork.
2. Frictionless Practice - 30–60 minute lessons you can do anywhere.
3. Compounding Progress - You stack wins and skills daily. Your portfolio builds itself.

That’s Why We Created Artist Hour

Instead of telling you to "just draw more," Artist Hour gives you:
  • A clear, structured daily prompt you can do in less than an hour
  • Just one simple task that builds your portfolio and skills
  • No guesswork, no research, no planning
You don’t need talent. Or to somehow “find more time.”
You need a system that fits your life.

So Instead of:

  • Trying to find 3 hours to "get into the zone"
  • Watching endless videos with no real progress
  • Hoping inspiration hits after a busy day at work

Do This:

  • Spend 30–60 minutes checking off a task that actually builds your portfolio
  • Follow a proven path (designed by professional tattoo artists)
  • Make consistent progress, even on your worst day
No time wasted scrolling online. No decision fatigue.
Just straightforward tasks that build your skills fast.
That’s what we’re doing with Artist Hour.
Every day, I’ll send you a task designed to be done in under an hour per day.
No extra research or responsibility.
Just a clear “do this” that will improve your work and build your portfolio:
  • During your lunch hour
  • While you’re sitting in the school pickup car line
  • First thing in the morning
  • ​Or while you’re catching up on a show before bed
These daily lessons are the closest we can get to showing up every day and putting the sketchbook and pencil in your hands and doing the work for you…
After working closely with more than 8000+ students from all around the world, we know…
This level of structured accountability is what artists need to get out of their own way and start making real progress.

Designed for Tattoo Artists, By Tattoo Artists

Most art courses out there teach you how to draw - and that’s great…
But they don’t teach you how to design for the human body, where:
  • Ink expands over time
  • Designs need to follow the muscles’ flow
  • Tattoos need to heal, age, and still look good
That’s why everything inside Artist Hour focuses on building tattooable designs that belong in a tattoo studio:
  • Clean outlines that make sense on skin
  • Color placement that holds up over time
  • Shading that works with real tattoo techniques
  • ​A portfolio of designs you can offer to clients
