Owner and artist, Ryan Marek, was born and raised partly in the San Francisco area, then spent the rest of his childhood in a small town in western Montana. Ryan's artistic journey began at a young age. It was his grandmother who first taught him painting, sculpting, and wood carving. A student of the legendary Bob Ross, she passed down much of her knowledge and passion for art.

After moving to Spokane in the late 90s, Ryan honed a keen eye for composition and design while earning a degree in Graphic Design and Marketing. What started as a lifelong passion has now become his life's work as a professional tattoo artist. He specializes in a wide range of styles, from vibrant color and classic grayscale to bold black work, detailed illustrative pieces, and expressive abstract designs. He is dedicated to making every tattoo a one-of-a-kind piece of art that tells a story.
