BLACK AND GREY

Black and grey tattoos are known for smooth soft shading and fine line details along with a full range of black, skin, and many shades of grays. Classic subject matters range from portraits and realism to religious, geometric, horror, and more.  Our artists are all skilled in the art of black and grey tattooing.

NE0-TRADITIONAL, ILLUSTRATIVE, and new school

Breaking the classic rules by using a full saturation of ink for maximum skin coverage, a wide range of colors, varied line weights and  tightly rendered drawings: these are a few of the characteristics of new school, illustrative, and neo-traditional tattooing.  Rabble rousers are rule breakers after all, and our artists are no exception.

LARGE TATTOOS

From sleeves to back pieces, chests and ribs, large tattoos make the biggest statement and require time and commitment (from both the artist and the collector).  Get inspired by our gallery of large work by our artists ranging in all styles and subjects.  These tattoos define "go big or go home!"

SMALL TATTOOS

We are just as proud of the little tattoos we've done as you are to wear them.  Small tattoos can be fillers or a simple stand alone statement.  They are just as perfect for a first tattoo as they are for a fifteenth or fiftieth tattoo.  We believe that every tattoo makes a bold statement, no matter what size.  

MONSTERS, CREATURES, AND HORROR

If Halloween is your favorite holiday, our collection of tattoos of skulls, demons, aliens, monsters, and other ghosts and ghouls may be right up your alley.  In color or black and grey, photo realistic or completely custom illustrated, we have an artist with a mind just as twisted as yours!

FOOD AND CUTE

Delicious or adorable, its hard to pick a favorite. Whether you prefer cupcakes or kittens, we are sure you will be inspired by our collection of cute tattoos and food tattoos. From full color, realistic, to simple or cartoony, we never get tired of creating these fun tattoos. 

COLOR

Color tattoos can be bold or soft, detailed or simple, realistic or cartoony. Every color style and subject matter is as different as each wearer. From our tattooing standpoint, color tattoos are bright, high contrast, and applied  so that your color stays vibrant for many years to come.

REALISTIC AND PORTRAITS

Have a favorite photo of a loved one, pet, landmark, flower, or object and you want to wear that photo forever?  Then a portrait or realistic tattoo is for you. Done in color or black and grey,these tattoos will make the guy behind you in line at the market swear that your tattoo look so real that its "popping right off the skin!"

LETTERING AND Simple tattoos

Whatever you want your say, no tattoo is too small or simple!  Take a look at some examples of lettering, fonts, phrases, script, logos, and linework and your favorites from Pinterest done by our resident artists.  And psssst....Did you know that most tattoos like these can be accommodated the same day or even as a walk in!

COVER UPS AND REWORKS

Got an old tattoo that you regret? Or a tattoo that doesn't suite you anymore or you never really loved in the first place? We get it and we want to help.  Our artists have done hundreds of cover ups and reworks and have some truly amazing before and after pictures to prove it.  So bring us your old tattoo and let us work our magic for you.

PINUPS, GIRLS, AND MERMAIDS

What's not to love about a beautiful woman? Ladies of all varieties have been a main subject of tattoos for generations and modern tattooing is no exception.  If you like, we can turn you into a pinup, or your wife into a mermaid, or create your alter-ego, or even your dream girl that will always be with you.

MOVIES, TV, GAMES,comics & music

Want to show your ultimate fandom for your favorite movie, band, game, or comic book?  You could bring your autograph book to a Comic-Con or never retire your favorite tour t-shirt from '87.  Or better yet, just get a tattoo and wear your faves every day.

AMERICAN TRADITIONAL

American traditional tattoos are classic, simple, bold designs that are built to last throughout the years and are identifiable from across the room.   The style made famous by Sailor Jerry decades ago proves that "Bold will hold".  Below are some examples of traditional style tattoos by our artists. 

JAPANESE and asian

Traditional Japanese tattooing styles and techniques paved the way for many modern tattoo styles and have influenced artists as well as collectors. Symbolic imagery such as dragon, koi fish, cherry blossoms, daruma dolls, and geishas all have an intricate history and meaning.  The fit and flow on the body are also important elements of Japanese tattooing.

FLOwers and plants

Floral tattoos can be big or small, simple or intricate, color or black and grey. They can represent a family member, a memory, a song, a place, anything you care to wear forever. We've tattooed every flower from roses to lilies, peonies to daisies, orchids to chrysanthemums, and more! 

ANIMALS AND INSECTS

Animals are great companions, and they also make great tattoos. Wildlife, pets, sealife, bugs, and even mythological creatures are all great subjects for your next tattoo.  Want a photo-realistic lion? Or a cute cartoon kitten? Maybe a tough traditional tiger?  Or even an abstract geometrical tabby cat? Yeah, we have an artist who wants to tattoo that on you!

WATERCOLOR, ABSTRACT, GEOMETRIC AND TRIBAL

Tattoos are works of art, like paintings, and your body is the canvas.What better way to show your self expression than thinking outside the box with a tattoo that looks like it was painted on your skin or with the precision of geometry, dotwork, or mendhI.  Here's where to find an artist for that watercolor mandala you've been thinking of!
