The Nova Expansion Tattoo

Holy moly .. just did a 10+ hour session with Gunnor, and man I could not be happier. Just an amazing experience all over. From the design, to the setup, to the care take for my physical comfort, and the skill and talent that went into my tattoo... Just an absolute 10/10 A+ experience. Gunnar is an genuine all-star, and I can't wait for my next tattoo with him.

I can’t say enough good things about Justin Coppolino, the owner of Nova Expansion Tattoo in Seattle. He truly took the time to understand what I wanted and never once made me feel rushed. From start to finish, the whole process felt thoughtful, focused, and professional. The quality of his work is second to none. I’ve waited decades to get this tattoo because I wanted the right artist, and after looking at a lot of artists around Seattle, Justin stood out immediately. His portfolio speaks for itself—clean, consistent, high-level work across the board. You can tell he’s been doing this a long time and that he’s successful for a reason. During the session, he was calm, focused, and completely locked in on his craft. The final result honestly looks real. It captured exactly what I had in my head and the essence of what I wanted. The detail and execution are absolutely stunning. I’m already planning to go back and keep building on what we started. I won’t go to another tattoo artist after this. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.

Justin is the man! He has done a bunch of work on me and my friends. He is an ink wizard. The Nova Expansion is always good energy and full of talented artists. You will feel welcomed and cared for from the get-go. Cannot recommend this place enough.
