johnSNIPER@EXTREMETATTOOZ.COM Extreme Graphix was started in 1996 after John "
Sniper" Brown had almost 10 years experience, not only in the art, but also the safety of tattooing. Sniper Began Tattooing in 1987, working with a shop in Buffalo, New York. Upon turning 18 John attempted to enlist in the Marine Corps, but was rejected, as he did not have a High School Diploma. John then turned to enlist in the Army, who gave him a chance, where he did 13 months before transferring to his dream to be a Marine.
During this time is when he began seriously tattooing, and apprenticing in studios from Japan, the Philippines, Florida, Texas, and California. While in the Marines John always strode to be the best at whatever he did, which gained him enough recognition to be given a choice of becoming either a Drill Instructor, or a Marine Sniper. Since John Wayne's
"Green Beret" John had his mind set and chose to become a SNIPER, which is where the nickname came from. After doing his best, having his own Boat Squad, seeing the Persian Gulf, and Panama, he opted out in a sense.
From here Sniper became a rogue, ending up in the legal system, Since getting out he believes that everyone controls his or her own life and destiny. Tattooing is a permanent way to tell your story, the ups, the up downs, the sorrows and the triumphs. He owns 8 studios and makes a good living from tattooing, but deeper then tattooing and his stores, are his life and family.

If you previously had an account on this site, I am really sorry to say that you will need to sign up again. The database on the old site is different from the new site, and to move all the data would have taken months.

We are in the process of moving everything, so there will be a small degradation of service.
It will take a short while for everything to come back on-line, but things should work better.
Thanks for your patience.
