“Artists don’t make mistakes, they just make little happy accidents.” – Bob Ross.

Would you allow a 15-year-old boy to tattoo you? Probably not, but a talented young boy has taken his first steps as a tattoo artist and has already completed more than 20 designs on those willing to trust his skills. His name is Ezrah Dormon, but people call him ‘The Shark.’ There’s no doubt that the little boy has some incredible talent.

How Ezrah Dormon Developed Interest In Tattooing?

Dormon is a 15-year-old tattoo artist who was born and raised in Panama City. He first tried his hand at the tattoo gun while his mother was getting a red flower tattoo on her skin. The Little boy wished out loud that he could do the same thing. The tattoo artist Ali Garcia offered to have him fill in some of the lines of the red flower. That was the moment when her mother and Ali understood that Ezrah Dormon has excellent skills.

Since then, Ali Garcia has become Ezrah’s mentor. The little tattoo artist is still growing his skills at Honolulu, the tattoo shop. He practices on oranges and grapefruits sometimes and has learned how to draw various designs like panthers, snakes, roses and sharks. He has even tattooed his mathematics teacher.

Ezrah’s mother has encouraged his interest from the beginning, and she says, “I was getting that tattoo, and Ezrah was just sitting there watching us and talking. And he was like, ‘Wow, I wish I could try that. I would love to know how to do that,’ and Ali was, like, ‘Well, why don’t you try it now?”
