THE ARTISTS

I'M James Weaver aka (Rat).

I've been tattooing for 2½ years, but I've had a pencil in my hand since I was a kid. I grew up around tattoos—my old man was covered, and that's where it started. Watching ink become part of someone's story made me want to do the same. I always knew it'd be one hell of a feeling to put something I drew onto someone's skin for life.

I spend most of my time drawing in  Traditional and Black & Grey. Every piece is another chance to sharpen the craft and leave someone with something they'll get to enjoy for life. 

When I'm out of the shop, I'm with my wife and kid, recharging before getting back behind the machine.

I'm here to make sick tattoos that last a life time. Whether you're after a timeless traditional piece, black and grey or fine line design, I would love to help you in your tattoo journey.
