From Kat McCulloch: Right before COVID hit, in March 2020, I decided after 8 years to close the Montrose location, and open a two-person studio. We had a new location located off of Nasa Road 1 and were getting it ready for us to move in, and then lockdowns and craziness ensued. I decided to hold off getting a new space until this blew over. I was lucky enough to have a private studio space in the interim located off of 45 South and 2351 and will be conducting safe and clean business there until I am ready to find a commercial space. It’s a pretty great space to get tattooed in though, if I do say so myself.

A few bits of information regarding working with me: My rate is $170 per hour. I do custom work and require my clients to allow me to do what I do best and use my imagination AND intuition to create unique imagery—-from MY imagination—not Pinterest, or other people’s tattoos. I tend to swing toward an illustrative/realism/whimsical/fantasy/storytelling vibe in both color and black & gray. However, as of 2023, I will prefer to move into black and grey and blackwork/pointillism/fine line and detail work. I still love to do color, I’ll just be doing it on a smaller scale and/or simpler palette to change things up. There will be exceptions to this though and I will post about some fun imagery I’d like to tattoo! Also, you should know that there is a possibility I won’t be the right artistic fit for you—and I will gently let you know, as well as refer you to someone in our tattoo community that will be a better match.
If we decide to work together, there will be a consultation where we discuss your desires, take measurements, etc. Deposits for custom work range from $300-$800 for the drawing process depending on the complexity of the project. The deposit does not go toward the price of your tattoo; My creative process is not like what you see on TV reality shows. It’s countless hours of research, contemplation, soul-searching and other magical mystical tattoo artist stuff and often up to 20-30 hours drawing time. If you multiply that by $170, you will see that time is nowhere near covered by the deposit, so that is why my deposits will no longer go toward the final cost of your tattoo. What you get for this significant investment of your hard-earned money is my creative soul. I’m not going to just slap any ol’ thing on your body without care or deep imaginative consideration. I love tattooing and I put my love into my clients.
