About leftys
Created by me, Donald Gordon. A left handed artist, making tattoos and building machines “Lefty style”. I was born and raised in Las Vegas 30 years ago, and still here making tattoos and raising a family. From a young age I have always been interested in tattoos. The culture, designs and history have all inspired me as an artist. After years of HVAC work outside in the Vegas heat, I had to find something new to do and decided to pursue my passion as an artist and look for an apprenticeship. I wanted to learn and eventually practice the craft of tattooing. I found an apprenticeship at West Coast, after 2 years of apprenticing and working full time I was signed off as a tattoo artist. I continued to tattoo there for just about 5 years, until I recently moved to a new shop called Hive Tattoo where I currently make tattoos at.
Traditional style tattoos are my favorite and in my opinion the best for standing the test of time. I’ve always had interest in this style, not just because it paved the way for modern day tattooing but the designs are perfect with a bold outline, dark shading and bright colors. Check out my portfolio or go to my instagram (@_leftystattoo) to see some of my work.
I could not be the tattooer I am and continue to strive to be without all the amazing clients I have, returning or new I sincerely appreciate all of you. Thank you so much for the trust and support.
