World's Youngest Tattoo Artist

Most little children like to doodle, but 3-year-old Ruby Dickinson really takes toddler art to the next level: she's set to be the world's youngest tattoo artist!

The toddler is set to become the world's youngest tattoo artist after learning the trade from her father, Blane, who runs a tattoo parlour in Wales.
Mr Dickinson, 36, is importing an ink gun from the U.S. that has been specially designed to be used by small hands.

she is talented,I doubt her dad will allow his 3 year old daughter to have a tattoo,atleast he did not force her into the craft,like some parents force their kids into modeling.

No, she doesn't have a tattoo on her arm. It's all smeary and nothing like a real tattoo. Looks like it was done with pen, and if I were a toddler and wanted to be just like Daddy, I'd probably ask for a "tattoo" as well. I think it's great seeing a dad that bonds so well with his daughter!

Grr... I guess I posted too many links. Anyway, this entry, which is about the other end of the spectrum, contains links to a few young tattoo artists (including a baby) that I wrote about back in my BME days:
