I love the drawing but I want some changes..
Minor changes are free of charge. If you require a major overhaul a drawing fee may be required to move forward. It’s best to familiarize yourself with my portfolio, bring references to your consult and to communicate a clear idea of your concept and expectations. It’s totally fine if you want to “leave it up to the artist” however if the client doesn’t like the drawing a drawing fee still applies.

Debit and cash are accepted as payment. Visa and MasterCard are also accepted with a 2.5% service fee.
Are you open to tattooing all People?
Absolutely. All humans and all bodies are always welcomed. Please feel free to share any concerns you may have regarding the tattoo process that will make your visit more enjoyable. The only exception to note is if the client’s health is a concern in the production and/or healing of the tattoo for the client and for the person creating the tattoo. As always health and safety first before art. Please email to discuss further if you think that may apply to you.
I’m sick but not that bad can I still come in?
Please inform me as soon as possible if you are sick to discuss and make arrangements. Due to the close nature of tattooing and the requirements on the immune system to heal a tattoo your appointment will have to be rescheduled.
Can I bring a friend or a family member with me?
Yes you can. However due to the small space and how many other artists are working that day they may or may not be able to sit near you during your tattoo appointment.
