Bring Your Personality to Life
Tattoos are a visual expression of personality and can can be as elaborate or simplistic as you would like. From a basic texted verse or favorite quote to an intricate 3d tattoo with depth and dimension, we want to bring your visions and personality to life. Tattoos are far from the taboo they once were and can be body art pieces, beautiful works of art on skin, or just a sentimental representation of a loved one. Tattoos have been used by humans for thousands of years and each culture has developed their own visual vocabulary. Tattoo artists use design, color and shade to create a tattoo unique to the wearer of the artwork.
Tattoo art is a growing form of self-expression and can be the perfect artwork to commemorate your life events or serve simply as an artistic statement. Our artists at Price Tattoo are as unique as their body design work. Tattoos have moved from urban subculture towards mainstream culture and are now worn by individuals in all walks of life. Tattoo parlors are no longer just found in seedy parts of town but tattoo shops have become popular destinations for people to get work done on their skin. Tattoos are becoming so common, they can be seen worn by kids to grandmothers. At Price Tattoo we pride ourselves on providing the best tattoos possible to our clients. Tattoos are a passion of ours and we want each tattoo to be unique, not just the art but the experience as well.

Tattoo Text and Fonts
From loved one’s names to favorite verses or quotes, texted tattoos are some of the most popular ink designs to choose from. You can even add a fun twist to your tattoo design and make it more unique. Fitting your words with the right font is a decision in itself. You will want it to look proportional, professional, and pertinent to the message you wish to convey. If you wish to get the name of your mother or child, for example, you might want to choose a more delicate script. If you are going with the script on the ring from Lord of the Rings, you’ll want the exact elvish script J.R.R. Tolkien designed for his books.
You do not need to come to the studio knowing exactly how you want it to look. Yes, have an idea of what you want your piece to say or a general stylistic genre you might want to explore. But it is our job to match you with the right artists we feel fits you best and they will then work closely with you to develop your ideas into exactly what you want them to be. Tattoo artists are trained in various mediums of expression and can work from photo references to help you visualize your tattoo. Tattoos should not be a fly-by-night decision but rather something you are excited about for years to come.
Simple or Elaborate Tattoos?
Your tattoo can be as large or small, as simple or as elaborate as you would like. An increasingly popular tattoo style has been simple line drawings or silhouettes of an object or pet. Often it is these simple designs speak the loudest and mean the most to the wearer. If you are getting your first tattoo and are hesitant about what to get, we recommend going with a more simplistic design, guaranteed to be classy and timeless.
On the other end of the spectrum, tattoo detail and size can get to be pretty intense but often are the most stunning pieces of art you will love for a lifetime. Tattooing can achieve a 3-D effect using shading and other techniques to make shapes look more realistic. Tattoos of landscapes or flowers are also very popular and we have exceptionally talented artists at Price Tattoo who specialize in these styles. Just be prepared the more detailed, elaborate, and large the tattoo, the more time it will take to make it perfect and imprint it on your skin. Worth it? Absolutely.
3D Tattoos
3D tattoos are a growing phenomenon and an artistic style not many tattoo artists have perfected. Dimensional tattoos are elaborate and often on a larger scale to show off the shading, design, and hard work spent on the art. Tattoos in 3-dimension style not only look gorgeous but also catch people’s attention and generate conversation. You will love showing off your tattoo to everyone and of what it symbolizes for you.
Tattoos that are only text have more flexibility to offer the 3D look, whereas other tattoo designs can be illustrated in this style as well. Have a favorite place or object you want on your skin forever? Bring in a picture and we will get it drawn up for you. These tattoos often involve a lot more work, and will most likely involve a lot more of your and the artist’s time. But we want to get it right before it becomes permanent so we will do markups and revisions until you are happy with it.
Memorial Tattoos
Tattoo design is an art form and is often used for commemorative or memorial reasons. Tattoos can represent people, places, or events uniquely and stunningly. Tattoos are also popularly used as memorial art for loved ones who have passed away. A tattoo of their initials is often done in their honor. Tattoo design has evolved to be able to reflect emotions about the passing of someone you care deeply about and is often expressed in a symbol or image of something they loved.
Memorial tattoos are sentimental and we will treat them with the utmost sensitivity. Have a photo of someone you are missing? Bring it in and we will try to recreate them. Renditions of lost people and pets are some of the most delicate matters in the tattoo world, and it is our job to provide you with the best tattoo that will honor your loved one.
