Tattoo Styles: Black and Gray Tattoo, Realism
EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Last month, Nik completed my first tattoo — a full trash polka arm sleeve — and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Nik is a phenomenal tattoo artist and truly one of the most skilled in the trash polka style. Even a simple Google search for “trash polka tattoo” will show his work, and it’s easy to see why. From the start, he worked closely with me, taking my broad ideas and asking thoughtful questions to help narrow down exactly what I wanted. The result was a sick, one-of-a-kind design that I absolutely love and receive constant compliments on. Nik’s passion for his craft is obvious — he takes his time, pays close attention to detail, adapts as needed, and communicates his vision clearly. I’ll be honest: I was nervous and indecisive going into my first tattoo, knowing only that I wanted trash polka. I sought out the best artist I could find, and even from our initial email exchanges, I knew Nik would deliver. I flew in from Colorado just to get this sleeve done, and Nik made the entire process welcoming and comfortable. If you’re looking for a quality tattoo artist — especially for trash polka — Nik is the one to go to.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can not say enough good things about Nik. I made an appointment to get a memorial piece done for my two recently passed pets of 20 years. My black cat was horrible at taking pictures, but Nik was able to capture his grumpy glare and was also able to capture the sweetness of my gray cat. He took the time to do a thorough consultation and gave me options for the design. Working together, we were able to come up with something better than I ever imagined. The shop is immaculately clean and they do offer a more private area. Since this tattoo was done on my thigh, he offered the private room. Nik made the process virtually pain free - of course no tattoo is pain free, but I was able to sit comfortably the entire time. He also did frequent check-ins to make sure I was doing alright. I felt completely comfortable and at ease the entire time! Again, I can't say enough good things about him. He takes the time to listen to you and offers honest feedback. He is also crazy talented. If it's your first time or 100th time getting a tattoo, see Nik! I fully plan on seeing him again. You will not be disappointed!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to Art Collector Tattoo and had a piece done by Iryna. We worked with each other for a few weeks, getting the idea down before we made the appointment. Iryna is very artistic and professional. She heard all of my wishes and concerns and put together a design I am very happy wearing on my arm.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Art Collector Tattoo was a wonderful experience! They were very helpful from the beginning when matching me with the best possible tattoo artist that would help bring my tattoo idea to fruition. One the day of my appointment, the person at the desk was very nice and helpful. My tattoo artist Greta took her time to ensure that the tattoo I wanted was to my liking...and she did an awesome job! It was a simple fine line script tattoo, and it turned out beautifully!!! Thank you, Art Collector Tattoo & Greta for a wonderful experience and a great tattoo! I will definitely be back in the future!!!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Got a Polynesian tattoo from Iryna and she did absolutely phenomenal!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wanted to get a cover up tattoo of wukongs headband on my right wrist. The first artist did a horrible job and I trusted Irnya for this job. I thought she did amazing work and I’m very happy with the end results. She told me if it wasn’t a cover up the results would have been better and she could have done more and I believe her. The tattoo I think looks great and looks like the reference picture I gave her. I’m going for a retouch soon once it’s fully healed and the line work and outlines will look better then.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great space and the whole team were very friendly and helpful. Erick did a great job and took time to make sure we got the piece right.
