Dave Storm was born in Modesto, California in the summer of June 1963. He is the youngest of 9 siblings, through adoption. Dave began freehand drawing out of the funny pages at age 5, where "Peanuts" "Beetle Baily" and other comic strip characters were some of the first drawn abilities of Dave's early artistic renditions. By age 9 Dave began secretly picking and poking on himself with the old, crude needle & thread dipped in ink method. after seeing a glimpse of what appeared to be a very distorted heart with his parents initials in it, on the inner wrist area of his Mothers left arm. Dave claimed to have missed noticing it due to the wrist watch she often wore to cover it. Well from that point curiosity struck Dave and his interest level for tattoos gained rapidly. By age 12 & 14 Dave's desire for tattoos burned out of control so much during his middle school years for wanting to learn about how to actually apply the tattoos, that he began ditching classes at Fred C. Beyer High School, and spending those academic hours at the only tattoo shop that served in Modesto at the time, called "Fine Line Tattoos & Portraits" Owned by James & Johnny Harp of Keyes, Ca.
