Tattoo Chiang Mai:
Tattoo artist in the mountains
at Baan Khagee Tattoo Studio Chiang Mai, Thailand
When you come to Chiang Mai and be interested in getting a tattoo, there will be some factors that you might take them for consideration such as, studios, locations, prices and of course Tattoo Artists.
Chiang Mai is well known for many forms of art, and tattoo is one of them. There are so many great artists in all over Chiang Mai. Most of them are based in Chiang Mai old city (The square) and down town area (Tha Phae Gate and Night Bazaar). But then there is one in the mountains. That's Nate.
"What!"
"Is he crazy?"
"Why?"
Those might possibly be one of your thoughts. Then the following questions might be who is this guy and what does he do up in the mountains. Well then, let's meet Nate, a tattoo artist in the mountains at Baan Khagee Tattoo Studio.
1. Hello, it's Nate
A tattoo artist in the mountains at Baan Khagee Tattoo Chiang Mai, Thailand
In the mountains?
"I remember dreaming of living in nature when I was a small kid. But that didn't sound possible because what could I do for living? Being a farmer is not my ideal choice either. So I shut that dream down for a moment and chose to study business 💰.
Things almost seemed to work until I worked in a company and found out that it didn't work out 😆. So the next move that I chose to do was one of the biggest surprise in my family which was being a tattoo artist 😎🎨. After tattooing in Chiang Mai city for awhile, things led me (and my parents) to think that this would now work. Until I felt like something was missing, hmmm...what was it?
Turned out, it was the dream of living in nature that was missing. So I'd decided moving up to the mountains and started a new journey, being a tattoo artist...in the mountains 🌿⛰️☀️."
2. What tattoos does he do?
Nate is passionate about nature and Thai art, so his tattoos mainly are mainly animal and Thai art related (Surprise! 😂) in the mixture of realism, abstract art and fine linework with delicate details.
There are 5 main tattoo styles presented by Nate from Baan Khagee Tattoo Studio Chiang Mai;

Thai Tattoos - Mainly Thai Naga and more
3. Where is his tattoo studio?
Baan Khagee Tattoo Chiang Mai is his tattoo studio
It's located up in the mountains in Mae Wang, Chiang Mai. But why has he come that far?
"Well, I always love nature and simple lifestyle. One day I came visiting Mae Wang and fell in love with it. The mountains scene was beautiful. The lifestyle, the vibe, the people here were all just what I was looking for. It was so peaceful and super chill."

5. A bit about Nate
Tattoo & Flow
“Where did the flow in your tattoos come from?” I was asked during an interview.
Going back when I was a little boy, I remember always drawing something out of my imagination. And nahh, it wasn’t pretty but I was always happy when I drew.
I also remember that I liked to add some “movement” into my drawing and imagined it moved. Then I would sit quietly looking at my drawing and played it in my head. That was a scene that people often saw but not often understand.
“I guess that was how it started” I told an interviewer.
That little boy has never gone away, but these days, he has turned his world into something that people more understand.
