Thank you for waiting. Friday the 13th sheets are up. Everyone is taking appoints, however availability is limited. We would like to accommodate some walk ins but appointments get priority. We WON’T be doing 13 dollar tattoos. Prices will be from 60 up to 150

Please book your appointments with the artist directly, not through the shop this time. Our Instagram would be the best place to get access to everyone. I’ll do my best to keep up with messages and get you in contact but appointments are first come first serve. Please reach out to your preferred tattooer directly. Joe currently has like 3-5 openings left, so get in with him quick.

We still have a few slots available for Friday the 13th. Message us to get in. See previous post for details

Phoenix’s longest-running Tattoo Shop

Jim Watson began his career in tattooing in the windy city of Chicago starting in the late 1960’s. Much of Jim’s time while in Chicago was spent in Cliff Raven’s tattoo shop, on Chicago’s North side. While there, he focused all of his energy soaking up as much tattoo knowledge and technique as possible. In 1971, Jim opened up his own tattoo shop in the Capital Hill area of Denver, Colorado. After 4 successful years in Denver, Jim moved and settled in Phoenix, Arizona where he continued to tattoo during which time he also opened a (now-closed) tattoo shop in Lahaina, Maui. Jim established Artistic Tattoo located in Phoenix in 1987 and Artistic Tattoo is longest-running tattoo shop in Phoenix, Arizona. Although Jim no longer works at the shop on a day-to-day basis, he still performs the occasional tattoo for friends, family, and by special appointments.
