First off, this review is about my wife's tattoo and my overall opinion and experience with Drew at Tobi's Tattoo:DREW: We have been looking for someone to tattoo her right shoulder and arm, but had to work around a prior piece that was very heavy handed (outline & shading) and dull (color), and had ideas but wanted an artists' opinion and viewpoint. Everyone else, at other shops, said they could add tattoos to the piece and bring it into a quarter sleeve, but only Drew had detailed ideas about how he was wanting to touch up the prior tattoo to help it flow and coalesce, and how he was going to work with progressions to make everything flow without making the entire tattoo needing to be heavy. He outlined the new tattoo and touched up some lines on the old one and was very attentive. We go back for shading and coloring and will update and include pictures then, but as of now- the tattoo looks amazing and he did a great job. We can't wait for it to be finished, Drew is very professional and passionate about his job and art and I highly recommend him.TOBI'S: Walking into the shop, right away, the vibe was great! Everyone gets along well and professional. Some other shops we've gone to are full of tattoo artists and piercers talking horribly about each other when the other isn't around, this doesn't make for a professional vibe, but Tobi's is different; you'll hear joking around and teasing but not slander and bad mouthing of each other or of other shops. I highly recommend Drew for a tattoo, it's refreshing to see the kind of passion, skill and professionalism he possesses!!! Read Less
