An award-winning tattooer, Matt is known for his incredible use of bright colors and super-clean linework. While Neo-Traditional is Matt’s signature style, he also enjoys most forms of tattooing such as Black & Grey, Traditional Japanese, American Traditional, Celtic, Illustrative & more. Whatever you’re into, you’re guaranteed to get a solid tattoo by Matt.

He has been featured in various local, national and international publications. He has published a flash sketchbook, Tattooable Pinstriping Designs, which is available here and by many companies as a reference book for professional tattooers.

An accomplished pinstriper, Matt loves to bring that art form into his tattooing and is well known for the super clean lines that a solid pinstriping tattoo demands.
