Kent Harrison

Tattoo Artist

Kent Harrison

My name is Kent, and I'm passionate about creating custom tattoos that are built to last a lifetime. Whether you're looking for a meaningful piece or your next large-scale project, I take pride in creating clean, high-quality artwork that's tailored to each client's vision. Outside of tattooing, I enjoy spending time outdoors hunting, fishing, and making the most of nature. Those experiences have taught me patience, focus, and an appreciation for craftsmanship—qualities I bring into every tattoo I create. I believe the best tattoos come from working closely with each client. From the initial idea to the finished piece, I take the time to understand your vision, refine every detail, and create a custom design you'll be proud to wear for the rest of your life. The best way to book with me is through Instagram DMs. Send me your tattoo idea, placement, approximate size, and any reference images you have. I'll get back to you as soon as possible to discuss your project and schedule your appointment.

Matt Maldonado

Tattoo Artist

Matt Maldonado

My name is Matt Maldonado. I specialize in black and gray traditional, color traditional, and fine line tattoos, creating clean, timeless pieces that tell a story and stand the test of time. When I'm not tattooing, I'm usually spending time with my animals. I have three dogs, two cats, nine tarantulas, a jumping spider, two crested geckos, and a reef aquarium. Caring for them has taught me patience and attention to detail — qualities I bring into every tattoo I create. I believe every tattoo has meaning, and I enjoy working closely with each client to create something personal they'll be proud to wear for a lifetime.
