Highly Recommend I had an incredible experience with Gabriel Garcia at Artistic Impressions and would highly recommend him. He was easy to work with and I love what I got. I sent him an idea with a few pictures and he sent back an incredible version he put together. He worked with me on the size and location until it was exactly how I envisioned. His station was clean and he made sure I was comfortable for the extent of the tattoo. I was a little nervous going into the tattoo because it was a larger piece for me and I had never used him before. However, I was put at ease with his professionalism and demeanor. Again, I highly recommend him and plan to get additional pieces from him.
INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE this was my first tattoo ever to memorialize my mother who passed in 2009. One of my best friends got a Spartan warrior half sleeve on his left shoulder and after I saw it I knew I would go to no one else but Ulisses. I didn't have to shop around whatsoever. Ulisses is not only an artist but a master of precision and detail. The original tattoo was 9 hours straight in one sitting with two small breaks in between. Ulisses talent and skill are Paramount in this industry in my opinion. His meticulous attention to detail in crafting his art are hands down some of the best I've ever seen. I've always thought about getting a tattoo for the past 15 to 20 years this being my first one I couldn't be happier. He was patient, communicative, and collaborated on exactly what I wanted to remember my mother and the deeper meaning behind it. The facility, Artistic Impressions is imaculate and clean with everyone's stations having their own unique blend of style and character of the artist. Ulisses gave me exactly what I wanted for placement, size, shading, and detail. I'll be coming back to him for several more pieces in the future, I wouldnt go to anyone else. His wide breath of material and experience can accommodate any person or subject material to get a wearable piece of art that will last a lifetime. I will highly recommend Ulisses and the facility to anyone that is interested in getting a tatto. The pictures below are just a few days after my touch up, for more depth and shading.
I have gone to Jerry for both my Raven and my Fox (almost finished) thigh tattoos. He is absolutely amazing and knocks it out of the park every time I get work done. The staff is always nice and the place is clean. I recommend all my friends to go here.
