“Fantastic!! Kirk worked his magic on my 2 (so far) tattoos.

He works by the hour (not by the tattoo or piecework by the job), which I believe is a very fair approach (an hour’s pay, for an hour’s work, the way it should be IMHO).

Also, he does only B&W (or, Black & Grey & White, and all shades in between), so if you’re looking for colour tattoos, you’ll have to go somewhere else. However, IMHO, B&W is the only way to go.

Kirk is actually a sketch artist (and a damn good one!), using primarily charcoal (and maybe graphite too), and if you visit his shop, you will see his drawings hanging on his walls, and they are awesome! And his sketching talent shines through in his tattoos. He uses white ink and various shades of grey ink to make his tattoos *pop*, so they appear to be “in relief” or 3-D. It truly is an amazing talent, he is indeed very gifted.

As a segue, I had a couple colour (red & black) tattoos done by another tattoo artist (who shall remain unnamed), and I was a bit disappointed in the results (one of the tattoos was decent, but the other was terrible, and looked amateurish next to Kirk’s tattoos). I may work with Kirk to attempt a “cover-up” tattoo (though I may have to have it “laser faded” first with one or two laser removal sessions… *sigh*). The other tattoo artist did work faster than Kirk, but he charged by the tattoo (piecework), and in the end, for what I paid, and for the amount of time he spent on it, I ended up paying more (a higher rate by the hour), and the quality was inferior to Kirk’s tattoos. Faster is not always better, although I would not say that Kirk works slowly, he just takes the time to do a professional job.
