Our story

SELF-TAUGHT
AT 15.

Matt’s journey began at just 15 years old. Entirely self-taught, he dedicated countless hours to learning, refining his craft and building the skills that established his reputation.

His experience spans virtually every tattoo style, from traditional and blackwork to large custom projects. Realism became his signature: work built on detail, depth and emotion.

In 2025, Matt stepped away from a large studio environment to create something more personal. Every appointment is now a dedicated one-to-one session, free from the pressure and distractions of a busy shop.

For Matt, tattooing is not simply ink on skin. It is meaningful artwork, trust, and an experience clients remember long after they leave.

Then & now

BUILT OVER
A LIFETIME.

What began as a teenage obsession became more than two decades of drawing, tattooing and learning from every piece. The setting has changed; the commitment to the work has not.

WHERE THE JOURNEY BEGAN.

Young, self-taught and already committed to the craft — building confidence one line, one client and one long session at a time.
