I have both piercings and tattoos by "Yankee" Dave Hotchkiss. His 28+ years of experience is obvious. His creativity is limitless. He will talk you through your own tattoo ideas and create a beautiful custom design that you will display proudly. Professional yet personable. His love for his work is obvious. Always willing to come in, schedule an appointment during non business hours if needed for your schedule. View his portfolio as it speaks for itself. Read Less

Valerie is very talented and cares a lot about her customers. She is very meticulous and original and you will not regret your experience with her. She has done two works of art for me and I am very happy with both and get compliments everyday for her good work. She has talent way beyond her years of experience and the whole process was enjoyable, even my first one that I got at age 64. Read Less
