When it comes to art and creativity, one can spot true genius at a very young age. Among these prodigies is 7-year-old Nong Night from Thailand. Nong has become an internet sensation for his masterful tattoo artistry. A viral video of the young boy tattooing his father has led people wondering if they can book an appointment with him for their next tattoo. Let’s take a look at the 7-year-old Nong Night, his artistic process behind the viral video and explore the possibility of booking a tattoo session with the prodigy.
Who is the viral 7-year-old tattoo artist Nong Night?
Nong Night resides with his family in Chonburi province, Thailand. His passion for tattoo artistry started from watching videos on his father’s phone. Like every other parent, Nong’s dad wanted to steer him away from excessive screen time.
Almost unintentionally, Nong Night’s father, Nattawut Sangtong, ignited his son’s interest in tattooing. To his surprise, the little boy began to create his own tattoo designs using art materials and eventually inked them onto his father’s arms.
A proud Nattawut Sangtong revealed that he did not expect his son to take up such an unusual hobby. However, he recognized Nong Night’s genuine talent and dedication. His incredible attention to detail and precision is way beyond his years.
Exploring how Nong Night tattoos his dad
Popular online media outlet LADbible shared a video from NewsFlare which showcased Nong Night’s talent to the world. In the viral video, the 7-year-old uses his dad’s skin as a canvas and acts as his exclusive tattoo artist.
The young boy begins with the creation of a template, where he sketches his designs on paper. He then transfers the design onto his father’s skin using a stencil, effectively creating a temporary tattoo.
Armed with a tattoo pen, the young artist carefully follows the outline he has drawn on his father’s body. To protect the artwork from dirt and maintain its integrity, a clear gel is applied over the tattoo.
Throughout the process, his father ensures that any excess ink is wiped away, allowing the design to take shape flawlessly. Despite his tender age, Nong Night’s commitment to honing his skills through relentless practice has earned him the title of a tattoo artist prodigy.
Is it possible to book a tattoo appointment?
As of now, there is no official information available regarding Nong Night’s tattooing services going commercial. However, given the interest from people around the world, it wouldn’t be surprising if opportunities arise in the future to get a tattoo done by him.
Moreover, Nong Night is not the only young artist who has made headlines with their exceptional tattooing skills. Noko Nishigaki, a 10-year-old artist from Japan currently based in Amsterdam, began tattooing at the tender age of six.
Despite still being an apprentice, Noko is already one of the youngest working tattoo artists globally, alongside 12-year-old Panamanian prodigy, Ezra Dormon.
Maya Lu from Tengen, Germany is recognized as the world’s youngest tattoo artist, having started at just 2 years old. Now at the age of 9, Maya showcases advanced level skills, techniques, and designs at the studio Psyland 25 in Tengen.
