About Dean

About Dean

Started in 2010 with an apprenticeship under the legendary Tony Weintraud from Tattoo Tony. Originally a BA Information Design grad from Tuks, Dean thought he'd be whipping up ads or animations. But sitting at a desk? Yawn. He ditched the screen for the studio.


Years of Ink-sperience

Since jumping into the tattoo scene in 2010, he's been on a roll. Black and grey realism is his jam – think lifelike details and jaw-dropping textures. But don’t box him in; he loves dabbling in all styles. Cover-ups? Bring ’em on! He’s your guy for turning oops into awesome.


Ready for some killer ink?

Whether it's black and grey realism or something wild and custom, he's your guy. His mix of top-notch tools, artistic flair, and cheeky charm guarantees you’ll walk out with a tattoo you love.

What started as a single arm sleeve, grew to a piece of artwork by Dean. Done over a four year period by a talented artist, the detail and quality of his work is unbelievable. Thanks so much - will be back for more.

"Dean's attention to detail and artistic skill is truly exceptional. He did an incredible job with a cover-up, seamlessly expanding to my shoulder and full back."

Dean quickly and patiently worked through the theme I was looking for and transformed it into an inspiring piece of artwork... and more than once! All while having a lot of fun. You're in very good hands with Dean! (literally!)

"I am beyond thrilled with the outcome! Dean brought my vision to life with incredible precision and creativity. Throughout the process, Dean was professional."

We call him a wizard with a gun. I got the first tattoo done as a gift and I just kept going back. I recommend dean constantly and will keep doing so. Go see the wizard with the gun!
