Harley’s Humorous Insights

Harley, the tattoo artist with nearly 18 years of experience, shares his journey into the world of ink, which began with a friend’s “stupid, ugly, pudgy green gargoyle” tattoo. Who knew a gargoyle could inspire a career? Harley, who’s as skilled with a needle as he is with a joke, explains the art of tattooing on different skin tones, likening it to viewing art through a tinted window. He assures clients that he’s happy to adjust stencils, even if it takes hours—because, hey, tattoos are permanent, unlike his patience, which is surprisingly enduring.
