What Should I Get? And Where?

Its all a matter of personal taste. You can get whatever you want and whatever your artist is willing to do. You can choose a painting from the wall or have them create a custom piece just for you. The only limit is your own imagination. As for where you should do it, just keep in mind what you do at work and what social circle you are in. You may want to place your tattoo somewhere where it can be easily hidden by regular clothing.

What Is the Best Time of Year to Get a Tattoo?

While you can get a tattoo at any time of the year, your skin is much more exposed in the summer due to swimming, sunbathing, and just more exposure to the elements. Winter time is really the best time for a tattoo.

Where Can I Find Pictures of Tattoos?

If youre getting a tattoo, especially as an expression of your personality, why would you want the same tattoo as someone else? Instead, find other images of what youre looking for and let your artist draw a custom design for you. Example: If you want to get a tattoo of a penguin standing on a glacier, find real photos of penguins and glaciers. If you want a blue rose tattoo wrapped around a cross, find images of real roses and crosses that you like. If the images dont show exactly what you want, just take them to your artist to use as a guide and tell them what changes you want to make to the original images. A true artist will gladly accept the challenge of creating an individual work.

Are Tattoos Safe?

As long as you go to a reputable artist who takes all the recommended precautions, getting a tattoo is perfectly safe. Make sure you are completely honest about any illnesses.
Does It Hurt?

Pain is really relative. Everyone has a different pain tolerance. However, we are not going to joke with you - it really hurts. Just not much. Some compare it to the "feeling of a hot scratch". But people wont come back for tattoo after tattoo if it hurts that much. Most of us dont get hurt, but the beauty of the tattoo and the pride that comes with wearing it far outweighs the pin stick here and there.How about using some kind of anesthetic cream? Such products are really not recommended.
How Much Is It Going to Cost?

When it comes to tattoos, you get what you pay for. Yes, there are many people who get tattoos for a very small fee. But look for quality and be prepared to pay for it. Never bargain over the price of a tattoo. This is disrespectful to the artist. Think of it this way: its a work of art that youll wear for the rest of your life.
Should I Tip My Tattoo Artist?

Tipping is a very nice gesture. But there are no real hard and fast rules for tipping.
What Should I Get? And Where?

Its all a matter of personal taste. You can get whatever you want and whatever your artist is willing to do. You can choose a painting from the wall or have them create a custom piece just for you. The only limit is your own imagination. As for where you should do it, just keep in mind what you do at work and what social circle you are in.

Is It OK to Get a Tattoo if Im Sick?

Getting a tattoo when your immune system isnt at 100% isnt the best idea. Youll need your strength and white blood cells to heal the tattoo, and your body wont be able to do that if its already fighting viruses and bacteria. Not to mention, its very imprudent to bring your disease into a tattoo studio and risk passing germs on to others, especially your artist. If you have an appointment, call and reschedule until you feel well again.

Kaylee Renee

Liz has been tattooing me for several years now and I love all of her work, not only that, she’s been a great friend. I also have an award winning leg sleeve because of her! When my nephew wanted his first tattoo I took him to Liz. Articulate Gallery is always super clean and all the artists there are professional and extremely talented. It’s the only shop I recommend when people ask me where I get my work done!

Bart Huneycutt

Rob thank you for an amazing job on my tattoo. I can not say enough great things about Rob. His work ethic is beyond impressive!! His no compromise approach to giving his best to his customers shows in his patience to get it right and his incredible work! Thank you Rob for helping me take the defining moments in my life and turning them into art. I really appreciate it!!!!! I'm looking forward to part 2 this November!!!

Deana Baker

The artists here are top tier. Liz has been my artist for many years and is extremely talented and I always look forward to my tattoo/therapy sessions with her. The shop itself is welcoming and the perfect vibe. 10/10 recommend.

Scott Swaim

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE ARTISTS!!! Everyone in the shop has amazing work, but Liz and Rob are phenomenal! Liz has been tattooing me for years now and every time, I am amazed at the work she does. Everyone in the shop will make you feel like an old friend. Hands down a 10 out of 10!

Paul Strong

Made an appointment with Liz about two and a half months out after researching her work. I was real anxiously waiting my turn since she is such an outstanding artist that you have to book her way in advance. I had given her the basics of what I had wanted my tattoo to be and gave her liberty to make it the way that she thought was best. She presented me with two options and both of which were nice but one had just a little more flare. I sat for 4 1/2 hours and we (both Liz and I) decided that I will come back for one more sitting to added a little more color to make it pop just a bit more even though it is not "complete", it is an outstandingly awesome work of art that I will be proud to carry with me and show off!!!

Daxton Mills

Rachel is a stellar artist and never disappoints with the work or the time that is done. super amazing work is always done at this shop. Very clean and good environment! If your looking for your next tattoo come here !!!!

Matt Ort

Liz is a amazing artist! I have trusted her with the tattoos that have meant the most to me in my life! Coming from a guy that’s completely covered I would not go to anybody else for a tattoo that meant something to me!
