I am a very decent artist right now need to know how I can gain experience that is required to work in most shops but can't get it because the shops won't let me work in there without that experience?? please answer?

Well apprenticing would be a good step.. I want to be a piercer and a lot of tattoo artists start piercing and then get training while they're being an apprentice. Also if you Google you'll see they even have schools if you're not lucky enough to get a break and have a tattoo shop hire you as an apprentice. (alot of shops are you have to know someone to get in, like a lot are run by family and friends.) So good luck to both of us eh?
