I have 3 pieces from David (one in progress) over the course of approximately 10 years. Not only has he been the most amazing and patient artist, but im lucky to call him a friend. I've had the absolute pleasure to have his artwork displayed on my body and throughout the entire process, he has been nothing but respectful, understanding, and accommodating. I have a weird relationship with pain and his patience with me while I struggle through it is one of the greatest gifts and I don't think I've thanked him enough. I have also posed nude for him and an apprentice for a sketching session. I have NEVER done something like that and im definitely not the type to do agree...read full review
Dave is my go to tattoo artist and I have recommended him to many of my friends and family! Dave is very professional and takes pride in his work as an artist! He takes time to listen to his clients and creates unique art pieces for each individual! I can’t wait to get my next one! 10/10 would recommend!

Stylist: Dave was great to work...read full review
