Flint . Michigan
Hanna Kello
Hello! I am Michigan native and artist, Hanna Kello! I am no stranger to the arts, having started my career in ceramics during my early teens. It was then that I discovered that working with my hands and creating is what I wanted to spend my life doing. From there, my passion only grew, branching out to try other forms of art, including glassblowing. Eager to conquer and master my new art projects, I quickly and carefully did so, crafting beautiful trinkets, jewelry, and straws. I took a risk and quit my desk job in the spring of 2019 to explore tattooing and begin my apprenticeship. Not only was this daring, I revealed to the world how dedicated I am to my art. Since then, I have been able to accomplish some seemingly impossible pieces with grace and precision. And despite being a perfectionist, I am an incredibly kind and friendly artist who loves to work with my clients to create a masterpiece we will both cherish forever. Online booking preferred.
Pinky T
Hi I'm Pinky T. I've been tattooing for about 14 years now and have been an artist all of my life. With tattooing I wouldn't say I have a "specialty" I really enjoy doing all different types of tattoos simple line work ,water color ,color, black and gray portraits to Polynesian tribal I do really enjoy doing cover-ups. I love taking something someone doesn't like and *poof!* turning it into something they love. I want people to feel comfortable, enjoy their experience and new tattoo. Just like tattooing, I enjoy doing all forms of art in my free time— from painting with acrylics and spray paint to making candles. DM Pinky DIRECTLY through Instagram for booking.

Matt Leckie
Hi! My name is Matt and I have been an artist my whole life. I have always loved drawing in high contrast and got my degree Graphic Design. However, my passion in art has always been around my love of drawing which is what drew me to tattooing. I began tattooing at a shop in Philadelphia in 2020. I am down to tackle most styles buy my favorite is black and grey illustrative and neo-traditional. I love drawing anything with organic lines made to fit the body. Give me the idea you like and I would love to draw it up. Fun fact: I am a full time pastor at Grumlaw Church, been married for 12 years, and am a father of three boys.

Thomas . Professional Piercer
Hey, I’m Thomas Waskiewicz. I grew up in Genesee county, and briefly attended NMU for architecture. I have been trained as a cake decorator, and a sideshow strongman, both of which I really enjoy, but piercing was always something that drew my attention. I’ve been a professional body piercer since 2011. Early in my career I learned the importance of high quality jewelry, and that’s all I use now. While I do love all of my clients that come see me, I thoroughly enjoy piercing children’s ears. I look forward to providing you with the highest quality jewelry, and best piercing experience that I can! Please book with me using booking or message me through Facebook.

Rick Green
Hey, I’m Rick, a tattoo artist from Miami, Florida. I’ve been drawing since I was a kid, and that love for art eventually led me to tattooing. Now, with 13 years in the industry, I’ve had the chance to develop my skills across a variety of styles. I lean toward illustrative tattoos and soft realism, but I enjoy pushing myself creatively and working with different techniques to bring each piece to life. I also love working with color—whether it’s bold, vibrant designs or more subtle, painterly tones.
