Edzon Tattoo

Sometime in 1986, most of the time when I’m off duty from my regular work, I paint on canvass for exhibits and do tattooing. Even when I was in KSA, some of my friends would request to have their tattoo done by me. Now that I am presently based here in the Cagayan de Oro and Iligan City, I still continue my painting on canvass and tattooing.
