Daniel Farren

Resident Artist

The easiest way to categorize Daniel’s work would be a blend between Illustrative and New School, often featuring animals, skulls and suits of samurai armor. Known for epic sleeves and back pieces, he prefers to work on medium-large pieces of animals or fantastical creatures.

William Volz

Resident Artist

Volz creates colorful tattoos based in both nature and fantasy, often featuring owls, mushrooms and mythical forest creatures. Always searching to uncover the magic this world has to offer, he hopes to breathe the same magic into the artwork he creates so others can see it as well.

Dylan Smith

Dawn loves tattooing botanicals, animals, insects, skulls or anything having to do with the natural world. She takes particular interest in anything scientific, witchy, occult or fantasy related.

Luigi Bort

Resident Artist

From the beaches of the Virgin Islands and raised in the Dominican Republic, Luigi was exposed to Japanese animation and the crazy world of video games which opened his eyes to what could be done with art. While in college for a Bachelor’s degree in illustration, he was exposed to tattooing. After graduation, he began his journey into the tattoo world. His work now centers around flowing, surreal blackwork, character portraits, and anime tattoos.

Dana Carlson

Resident Artist

Dana began tattooing in 2016, since then she has enjoyed exploring a variety of subjects while developing a personal style. She loves rendering plants, animals, skulls, antique objects, weaponry, as well as creatures and characters from lore and mythology. Dana’s tattoos borrow elements from illustrative and colorful neotraditional styles, but she also likes stippled blackwork.  one to two session tattoos are her primary interest, but feel free to ask about larger pieces.

Tom Strom

Resident Artist

Tom is an illustrative tattooer with new school influences. His work features bright, complimentary colors, animals taken over by mushrooms, skulls, and anything warped and whimsical.
