The Good: Edwin has done a wonderful job on my cover-up and the amount of detail he has put into working on it. With our consultation, we have specifically looked over dozens of images of real bears to find the perfect one. We found the perfect picture and he was able to freehand the image with ease. This wasn't my first tattoo by him but it is the largest piece I have; once I found a good artist, there wasn't a doubt in my mind that I wanted him to work on my cover-up. The Bad: Tattoos hurt, obviously! Edwin was able to suggest getting numbing cream to apply before the session to help with the pain. He also has the option of tattooing for an hour and spraying a numbing spray. Just be careful that you aren't allergic to it before asking for the spray. The Ugly: People might think that his prices are high but I think that they are perfectly reasonable. The initial payment with booking his time is put towards the payment of the tattoo and the additional hours after are totally worth every dollar you spend. His work is amazing! On to my next adventure... read more

He did such a wonderful job on my John wick tattoo! Extremely tiny too! Super detailed and he captured the seriousness of John Wicks recognizable face! Edwin was very informative about the after care and patient with the tiny details he had to do for my tattoo.

I have quite a few pieces and I have been holding off on my back piece due to what I want done, since it will be a cover up. I have been doing research on different artists and found Edwin. Since my next piece is my back I wanted to do a smaller tattoo to see if Edwin met my needs. When working with an artist I need to be sure I am getting what I want. I knew before going in for my small piece I was already comfortable with Edwin. We sat and discussed what I would be getting and he was straightforward with the pricing and process. Edwin worked clean and precise, and the placement of my piece works exactly for what was drawn up. Edwin's work is phenomenal and I can't wait to get started on my cover. read more
