Hawk Tattoo Machines

I generally like to do my own custom work. Meaning I draw your design and when I tattoo the design it is thrown away, never to be done again. Prices range at 120 an hour but generally anything over 4 or 5 hours will be even cheaper due to the fact I love to do my bigger custom pieces. I am very versatile with my work with 21 years combined expierience. I started professionally in 1992 and started at Shaws here in Houston. I tattooed there for 5 years back in th day when we stayed up all night till early morning tattooing on the strip. I do not tattoo flash any longer nor tribal or armbands and babymama names,unless of course if I can incorporate a banner nice to flow with a name.There are other artists in the studio that can do these so that I can focus on my custom clients.Of course I schedule in my ongoing projects with higher priority.

I stay booked between 3 to 4 weeks at a time. I like to study ,plan and work with the client prior to the actual process.I dont respect price shoppers when the quality of my work will be compromised when there is not enough time to create the art. I look at my tattooing like painting and I like to take the time to make each tattoo as good as possible. Perfection is within reach and I have seen people rush the ending of thier tattoo.The tattoo isnt done until I am thoroughly pleased with it.

Tattooing in Houston since 1992,started at Shaws.Opened Texas Body Art in 1998 .I only tattoo by appointment only and schedule my ongoing projects with higher priority.

The wait is anywhere up to 3 weeks.I only do work that I feel is my style and wont touch other peoples work or finish other artists work.I DO NOT do flash or any other tattoo that has already been done.

If you are interested in getting tattooed by me please follow these steps.
