Hey! My name is Matt & I’m originally from Savannah, Georgia. I moved to Seattle in 2020. I’ve worked in tattoo shops for 12 years & have been tattooing professionally for 8 years.
Growing up I was always drawing, making my own manga, & copying skateboard graphics. I became obsessed with tattooing when I was 12, collecting magazines, printing photos off at school, & whatever other information I could find.
I prefer to work with color, but I try to be proficient in most styles. I just love tattooing.
My work takes heavy influences from Japanese aesthetics, Art Nouveau, Nature, & Psychedelia. I like the symbolism behind common motifs & try to consider that within my own work. I prefer to work with color, but I try to be proficient in most styles. I just love tattooing.
