I've gotten several tattoos from Carter. Cloven has great artists doing great work for a fair price. Clintonville at its best.

Been following the artists here on Instagram for a long time and finally decided to work out a design with Carter and it turned out perfect. Great environment, super clean, and overall just a great place. Can't recommend Cloven enough

Hands down my best tattoo experience to date.
Chris Kirkpatrick did my tattoo. Her design is absolute perfection. She made me feel totally comfortable, letting me know exactly how the process would go, where she would start, what to do if I need to move, take a break, etc.
She made it a total collaboration from design to placement to colors in such a comfortable way - I’m the kind of person who would normally say “if you think it looks good, that’s fine with me” even if I thought I might prefer something different, but she did such an awesome job and I never felt like I couldn’t speak up about what colors I liked, how I felt about the placement, etc.
Parking was easy, everything was super clean, the shop vibes were totally relaxed, and my tattoo is absolutely gorgeous. I’m still a little in denial that I get to rock this incredible artwork from now on!
I will absolutely be coming back whenever I can squeeze into Chris’ schedule for more fantabulous tattoos.
Thank you so much!

Friendly, courteous, and professional. Always provides quality work and a positive experience. The shop is clean and the music selection is always on point. The other artists at the shop are equally as great. I highly recommend Carter and his team for your tattoo needs!

I couldn’t have had a better experience (first tattoo experience) with Carter. He was so patient and had amazing communication throughout the entire tattooing process. He is a true artist and knew exactly what I was trying to explain and made it 10x better. So excited to finish this tattoo and for all of the ones to come.Services: Tattoo design
