Alexis Vaatete was born with a huge imagination, and an artistic talent
to match. As a youth in Orange County, California, Alexis found a
passion for art growing inside him. While his mother worked hard to
provide for her family, he tapped into his endless imagination to create
scenes and worlds for his artwork. The dreams of night and day were
always there, a constant source to feed his artistic outlet. With his
imagination getting the best of him, he was able to draw to bring those
images to life on anything he can find. In an effort to improve his
skills, he started to reference the art from the comic book cards he
collected. Alexis' amazing journey with art had only just begun. Being
the son of a Marquesan, Alexis was strongly influenced by his Polynesian
background and from some of the books in his father's collection which
covered the history and lifestyle of the Polynesian Islands. The
pictures and stories depicted a culture that was deeply connected with
its tattoo heritage.
