Joshua Pfister

Meet our owner and creative soul, Joshua Pfister, an Ohio native with 15 years of professional tattooing experience. He is a proud father of two amazing boys and has a passion for all things art and creating. Specializing in black and grey realism tattoos with a hint of color, Joshua is always striving to become a more, well-rounded artist. His eye for design has undoubtedly been woven into the creation of his newly built art studio, offering a one-of-a-kind tattoo experience and more.

“I had a vision of creating a countryside tattoo environment that helps ease those small stressors tattoos can create or just simply, what life hands us. Of course, we’re excited to have kickass artwork on us, but that doesn’t always stop the mind-over-matter struggle when it comes to physical pain. That’s where I came up with the idea of integrating calming therapy practices into the tattooing process. I want to dive deeper into the meaning of relaxation through art and explore the impact it can have on our bodies when implemented in new and creative ways.”
