If you are looking for a first-rate tattoo by talented artists, then I would recommend Guilli or James with NO RESERVATION. I now proudly wear tattoos from both artists.
I grew to know these guys as they practiced their craft downtown. Both guys are straight shooters, non-dopers, and posess artistic talent that eludes some of the more experienced tattooists. Guilli & James are both known to have a light handed approach which is especially desirable if you are recommending them to a girl, or someone with certain sensitivities.
I got my first tattoo from James yesterday, and I am proud to say that it will not be my last. James was on time for the appointment, bright-eyed and ready to go. He took to my idea, and put his artistic skills to work, and before the day was over I had a tattoo that exceded my every expectation. James came up with original ideas that made the entire piece unique. The tattoo was a piece of a larger tattoo project. James' vision of my project matched mine perfectly. He will be finishing the project off for me.
I stand behind this review, and can recommend both of these Tattoo Artists with 5-stars and four farts.
