Hailing from historic Matsqui Village in Abbotsford, Franklyn is an artist, sign-painter, human and all round mellow individual. Franklyn has a passion for “keeping the tradition alive” of hand-painted and hand-lettered signage & pinstriping as well as his own neo-traditional take on the traditional/western tattoo art, which became popular during the early 20th century alongside the development of the electric tattooing machines.
