Custom Tattoos. Intentionally Created. Never Rushed.
Welcome to Creative Tattoos by Design — a boutique, appointment-only tattoo studio where the experience and collaboration are just as important as the artwork. Every tattoo created here is original, custom-designed, and built to last. We specialize in creating realistic and meaningful pieces that require patience, layering, and meticulous attention to detail — not speed or shortcuts.
If you’re looking for fast, cheap, or copied tattoos, we’re probably not the right fit.
If you’re looking for thoughtful artwork, a calm studio environment, and a tattoo you’ll be proud to wear forever — welcome home. The true success for us isn’t how many clients we serve, but the unique stories and beautiful artwork that leave our studio.
OUR CORE VALUES ARE WHAT SET US APART!
SERVICE & EXPERIENCE
Above all, we pride ourselves on giving clients a one-on-one, personalized experience. We treat every design project as a fun collaboration, not a transaction, so we take the time to understand your exact needs before we start designing.
EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION
Communication can make or break a project. With us, you can be sure it will make the process that much more enjoyable. Your feedback and opinions are respected and encouraged in all stages of the visual branding process.
INSPIRING COLLABORATIONS
We like to work WITH our clients rather than for them. In an equal collaboration, we’ll both be able to meet our timelines, create an incredible finished product, and enjoy every step along the way.
GENUINE CLIENT RELATIONSHIPS
Who wants all work and no play, right? When we collaborate, it’ll feel like we’re friends chatting over coffee. We love learning what you’re passionate about inside and outside of your business. Note: If The Walking Dead is on your list of passions, we may need to set up an extra coffee date!
I’ve been into photorealistic art for as long as I can remember. When my son grew up and joined the military—something he’d dreamed about since he was a kid—he wasted no time getting his first tattoo. One session in, and he was totally hooked.
We’d always joked about me getting into tattooing, and after years of me saying “maybe someday,” he finally called me out and bought me my first tattoo kit. And honestly… that’s where everything really started.
Now I’m diving into what I love most: creating bold, full-color photorealistic tattoos. I’m all about making pieces that feel personal, meaningful, and crafted with real care. If you’re ready to express yourself and wear something truly unique, I’d love to help bring your idea to life.
Specialty: Color Realism | Black & Grey Realism
I have two great passions in life: serving in the United States Army and creating impactful art. I started with pencils when I was a freshman in high school, and it took off from there to different mediums. I have done a lot of artwork in different combat zones as well as for various units, but I always knew there was something missing. It was collaboration and freedom.
Unlike a painting or pencil work, tattooing allows me to collaborate with the clients to create something unique and put their ideas and soul into a tattoo that travels with them wherever they go. I believe true artistry requires an open mind to create something that is said can’t be done. I understand the trust placed in me from all those looking for fresh ink, and I refuse to let them down. My passion for art allows me to create lasting memories for every individual,l and tattooing has become a great honor in my life.
