Andrew Graham, Artist

Accidents happen, and sometimes they turn into a 19-year-long career. That’s how I stumbled into the world of tattooing—by being a permanent fixture at the shop where I got my first ink. What started as hanging around quickly turned into a passion, and now, nearly two decades later, I’m still at it.

I’m just as comfortable crafting detailed portraits as I am bringing colorful, illustrative pieces to life. My shop reflects that vibe—bright, colorful, and always open to anyone. Whether you’re here for a tattoo or just to hang out and get a feel for the place, you’re more than welcome.

A big milestone for me was moving from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to Calgary. It wasn’t just about changing scenery; it was about pushing my career and life forward. Alberta’s epic mountains also called to my hobbies—snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, and backpacking. The thrill of these adventures keeps me grounded and fuels my creativity.

And I’m all about pushing boundaries—like the leg sleeve I’m currently working on, where Garfield and his friends are reimagined as Japanese samurai. Yeah, you read that right.

Fun fact: I could’ve been an accountant or an engineer, but where’s the fun in that? High marks in school aside, I chose the path of an artist, and I haven’t looked back since.

So, if you’re looking for a laugh, a chat, or just a damn good tattoo, swing by. The door’s always open—just like it was for me all those years ago.
