This is the tattoo shop for you if you want artists who take their craft seriously, who examine body placement and art proportions carefully. This is the shop for you if you want to watch artists learn from each other and marvel at techniques that challenge them to create even better work. This is the shop for you if you want to smile at the tattoo you've been gifted with each time you look at it.This is not the tattoo shop for you if you want to tell an experienced professional how to do his job. This is not the shop for you if you want a mindless transfer of unoriginal art onto your lasting canvas. (Or maybe it is! Go ahead and donate to these guys.)Pinnacle Tattoo is clean and professional. You get what you pay for. The artists' time isn't cheap, and it shouldn't be. You won't walk away with cheap-looking art - from anyone in this shop.In 2008, I had the privilege of a right sleeve completed by shop owner Chris Lain. Nearly every single day since then, I've been complimented on the artwork he did. People stop me in the grocery store, parking lots, gym, public restrooms, on work trips, in other countries ... to comment on what was my very first tattoo. Eight years later, as I weighed returning to Pinnacle Tattoo for work on my left arm, I wondered how a second Lain piece could possibly be as awesome as the first. I needn't have. I dare say my second piece by Chris Lain, completed in 2016, is even more brilliant. From the flower and leaf contours, the textures, the colors, the reflection of nature as it actually appears ... I cannot say enough about Lain as an artist and a student. I am proud to wear his designs.Whether your artist is Chris, Christian, Jeremy, Lucas, William or a visiting craftsman, you won't be disappointed. The environment alone is inspiring. If you want someone who will invest time in your art, invest in this shop and its people. Read Less
