Greg Piper Art

Greg has always been an artist. He was born and raised in Pittsburgh, grew up drawing, his first paid art jobs were painting Jean Jackets through the 80’s! He has always had a love for photography and did it as a hobby since he could afford his first camera. In 2008 while in Cancun he did his first dive, now almost four years later he has well over 1000 and counting. He fell in love with the underwater world. His travels and passion for the sport fueled by the art of photography has carried him off to the far reaches of our planet. He makes his living as a photographer and tattoo artist. He has been professionally tattooing for almost 25 years and has made Northern, VA his home. His My Tattoo studio has been in business for over 20 years, his life is a balance of two passions; art and the peace and tranquility that await on every journey below the waves. Take the time to visit his site and discover the underwater world as he sees it through the viewfinder. It’s always there, the Ocean, it amazes, it comforts, its surrounds us. Its beauty and majesty inspire him and it consumes his dreams and imagination from the time he climbs out of the water until the time he slips back in.
