    Over the course of two years I have been working with Dale to build an outdoor/wildlife themed sleeve. He absolutely crushed it! It turned out great and each session was reasonably priced.I’m currently working with him to build a sleeve on my other arm! Highly recommend these guys as you’ll get some top tier work out this place.

    I got my first tattoo from Dale and it turned out amazing! I have since gotten 3 more and every single time Dale exceeds expectations. I give him a general idea and he comes up with some amazing art. Couldn’t be more happy! Already have my next half sleeve on the books with him.
