Kelowna tattoo recommendations

Post by SLX2007 »

As it says, recommendations please.

I have the artwork & concept. Fairly simple. Needs execution.

Info appreciated. Go-to guys, best possible. Who to avoid (edit- send info by PM). Thanks in advance.

I got my tattoo done at Five Diamond Tattoos from Andrew (the owner) and he did an awesome job! He seems to specialize in color and intricate designs/details. I might avoid doing portraits/animals from him (but that's just MY personal opinion from the examples I saw). I have heard Little Bird in Vernon is fantastic from many people.

If you're getting a kelowna tattoo make sure you provide the artist with the correct spelling.
Mine says "Kill Lorna".
Nice script tho.

Dustin Kroetsch was the best around.
Most talented guy you ever saw.
Unfortunately he passed away a while back.

Look at their site, they display lots of their work on it.

Another vote for Little Bird in Vernon, well worth the drive. Best in the Okanagan by miles.
