She met Sarah and she immediately put my wife at ease (she was a little nervous) with her bubbly personality and enthusiasm! She was very happy with the cleanliness and overall feeling of the place. The final result exceeded our expectations! The tattoo looked exactly like the photo. She was amazed at the detail, the coloring, and she felt like the tattoo captured the dog's personality. I firmly believe that Sarah is one of the top artists in the Port Charlotte area; maybe in the state of Florida. Her work is that good! It was such a good experience that my wife might even get another tattoo. Try Sarah and Black Sails Tattoo- you will not regret it.

I was shocked at how painless the piercing (nostril) was; Rob's excellent at being both quick but precise, which I believe made for the least painful experience possible. He also keeps an immaculate station: everything is organized, sterilized, and hygienic; additionally, the procedure is thought out, planned, and discussed in advance, and the tools laid out in an exact, orderly fashion before the first step is taken. Rob absolutely loves his work and continues to educate himself on what's new and exciting in the world of body art; his passion for his art is both obvious and contagious. Simply put, Rob is the best in the business, and I wouldn't recommend or trust anyone else. He's also one of the coolest dudes you'll ever meet.

I was looking for a piercing studio to add to my ear candy collection and after a few phone calls I…read moredecided on Eternal Art. After finding out this studio was the oldest in Sarasota, I knew I'd be in good hands. I wanted a tragus and helix piercing to add to my collection. After discussing the jewelry options (I wanted a simple, tiny rhinestone) we settled on a few and Karen (the owner) began to mark my ear with placements. What I loved about Karen is that she gave her honest and professional opinion on placement of the helix. Where I initially wanted it was not going to be the best option because of the shape and curve of my ear. Being a woman herself, she knew I wouldn't love my initial placement ad recommended a lower helix piercing. I appreciated her honesty. She even asked if my two prior piercings were done by different piercers, which I said yes, and she knew right away they were from different people (because of the placement they did, going off of what I wanted and not taking my ear shape into consideration). I went with her recommended area and I couldn't be happier with results. She runs the show here at EA - a small, woman owned business which resonates with me. Karen is highly professional and personal, engaging and makes you feel comfortable and secure. I couldn't recommend Karen enough! Just an fyi - she's cash only - not a problem but come prepared. Always ask or call to make sure she's available and she can give you an estimate over the phone in what you are wanting. Karen - I'll be back to add more ear candy when I'm in town next.
