Went to see Kevin a week ago after seeing his artwork on a friend to get work done on my wrist. Shop was clean and organized and Kevin made sure that I was comfortable with the size and placement of the piece. I was given clear instruction on healing and post care. Highly recommend making a stop at Artifact and having Kevin do your next tattoo.

Small clean shop. Atmosphere is great. I've had 2 tattoos done by Kevin Brennan over the last few months and go back soon for my third. Kevin will work with you to achieve what you want. His artistic talents are off the charts. Even if you are looking for original art he has original art he dreams of just looking for permanent homes. Both tattoos that I currently have had been original art work Kevin posted on his Facebook page that I just had to have. My third piece he is working closely with me and what I have in mind for a full arm piece. Highly recommend Kevin and Artifact Tattoo.

Mike was awesome. After having a really, really bad few days, I, and for the record I am the QUEEN of poor choices, suggested to my BFF that we should go get supafruity matching tattoos. And I mean not just any matching tattoos, matching tattoos with our names on them. So we call mike two hours prior to closing. Without (much) protest, he tells us to come down. Not only did he customize my amazing scratch art into something even amazing-er (if that's a thing), he tattooed us both for an fair cost AND stayed an hour late. AND it was amazing work. I'll be going back for sure.

I had a great time with Britt this weekend getting my second tattoo (first with her). She drew up a beautiful mandala for me and did a fantastic job with it. Her lines are so crisp and perfect, I really don't know how she has such a precise hand so early in her career. I met Mike while I was there and he seems like a standup guy. Two professional, personable tattooers who bring very different strengths to Artifact. I got an appointment in a reasonable amount of time and paid a fair price. Already recommending all my CT folks stop in for their ink needs!

Artifact tattoo is one of the better and most professional businesses I have ever been to. They provide a clean and comfortable environment with good people and good music and most importantly, incredible artists. Britt who was my artist is kind, funny and very talented is still apprenticing but you wouldn't know it by looking at her art. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique piece.

" I had a piece done from Mike 14 years ago; my first piece he did and one of many pieces Mike did for me. With No Special care or treatment of the pieces that Mike did; Not One looks old or faded and the light colors like white or yellow are still as vivid as the day he did them."
