Jesus is an incredible tattoo artist. His work is beyond amazing and heals beautifully with clean lines, rich detail, and clearly done with care. What really sets him apart is his ability to take my vague scraps of ideas or half-formed concepts and turn them into meaningful, cohesive art that feels intentional and personal. He listens, collaborates, and elevates your vision in ways I didn’t even know to ask for. I trust him completely with my skin and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality, thoughtful tattoo work.

Almost a month ago, I went to Katie for a pet portrait of my dog who recently passed away. I have had multiple tattoos done and she was by far the easiest to chat with, sit with, and made the rib tattoo a little less painful than I was expecting. Not only was the experience top tier, the tattoo is everything I could ask for and more. She brought my little guy back to life. Could not recommend her enough!

Allison gave me the best tattoo I have waited for years to get…I was in Iowa on vacation and was gifted a tattoo from my family…she was fast and pain free and the detail was absolutely stunning…I will be back on my next trip to get another tattoo
