Help Mark Reid Focus on Recovery

Dear Body Art Community,

I’m reaching out today to ask for your help in supporting our dear friend and mentor, Mark Reid. As many of you know, Mark has dedicated his life to teaching and sharing his body art skills with people around the world. Now, he needs our support.

Mark has recently been diagnosed with kidney failure and will begin dialysis next week. This will be a major adjustment for him in the months ahead. I’ve created this fundraiser to help ease his financial burden, so he can focus on recovery instead of worrying about bills.

Mark is too proud to ask for help, which is why I’m stepping in—with his permission—to fundraise on his behalf. No donation is too small—every little bit helps, and together we can make a meaningful impact.

Thank you for your generosity. Let’s show Mark how much we appreciate everything he’s done for the body art community by supporting him now.

With gratitude,

Tal Thompson

Mark has been an incredible body artist and teacher for so many of us for YEARS! .
