Minimalist Tattoo Art By The Famous JonBoy Who Inked Kendall Jenner

JonBoy wants to be the East Coast Dr. Woo. This tattoo artist moved from Chicago to New York City five years ago, but his story is anything but normal. JonBoy was exposed to tattoos through his grandfather, who was in the Navy, but he went to school for something totally different: “I went to Seminary, and I was going to be a youth pastor.”

His clients so far include Kendall Jenner and Ireland Baldwin. “For me, it’s more of an honor to get to tattoo you” JonBoy told Refinery29. “Like, if you come to me and say, ‘I want to get a tattoo from you,’ I’m like, ‘Really? You want me to mark your body for life?’ I don’t take that lightly. I take it seriously, whether it’s the biggest tattoo ever or the smallest little dot that you could ever want.”
