Nick has done my entire leg and every time it is truly amazing work. You can tell he loves what he does and his attention to detail is unmatched. If you are looking for a floral/geometric/fine line piece, you have found the perfect tattoo artist. He will listen to your thoughts and concerns, takes his time with placement and checks in with you while tattooing. His studio is very clean and private so you never have to worry about anything. This has been a two year process and I wish I had more for him to tattoo. 1000/10 recommend.

He took the time to listen to what I wanted and brought my idea to life even better than I imagined. The attention to detail and quality of the tattoo are amazing, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. The studio was also clean and comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Nick to anyone looking for a talented and professional tattoo artist. I’ll definitely be back for my next tattoo!

Nick was very communicative and easy to work with. He took his time made sure everything was perfect before placing the stencil. I would 100% go back to him and would suggest anyone to go to him for their tattoo

12/10 Been waiting to finish my half sleeve for a long time. Nervous because there was previous work and how it would all look.

Nick did an amazing job on my tattoo! From start to finish, the whole experience was great. He took his time, paid attention to every detail, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the session. The tattoo came out even better than I expected. Nick is professional, talented, and takes real pride in his work. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to get some quality ink! 🔥🖊️
