Mr. Chad Wilderness

Gentleman Tattooer


 

Young Chad was one of the lucky ones. From the tender age of 13, he knew exactly what he wanted to be when he grew up.

His mother Peggy Sue began a relationship with a gentleman named Ronald Tribula. He had been recently paroled, after having served at Chino, Soledad, and other reputable correctional institutions. His possessions included tattoo designs on paper and his skin from the facilities he had paid his debt to society in;) His sense of humor intact, he made a strong impression on a young Chad by gifting him his record collection including The Clash, T. rex, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Rick James, etc. He then taught him to build improvised tattoo machines out of walkman motors, penshafts and guitar strings. This teamed with a developed sense of graphic design and composition lead a young Chad toward the path to tattooing, starting with neighborhood gang bangers, bikers and strangers...

Dave Camille Natural Canvas Tattooer

Mr. DAVE Cavnar

Tattooer



Hailing from Southeast Michigan and a chaotic (but fun) childhood in a household with six siblings, Dave has spent much of his adulthood searching for something he couldn't really identify. After working with children diagnosed with autism for two years out of university, Dave moved to Taiwan, where he taught ESL and explored past the edges of his comfort zone, still looking for the thing he couldn't name. In 2014, while getting his first large tattoo (by Casper Pawlowski), Dave decided to use his recovery time to do a Drawing a Day for 30 days. He immediately fell back in love with drawing (and the world of tattooing), and has been walking the path of creativity ever since. In December of 2019, that path brought him to Natural Canvas Tattoo in Marshall, NC, where he met Chad and his search ended. Dave enjoys the challenge of doing all different styles of tattoo, and is passionate about providing the best possible tattoo experience for every individual he works with.
