“Stormy was great! It was well worth the wait and the tattoo is incredible. I’ll be seeing him again and I loved the private studio experience”
— Terry Lillis Via. google review
“I wanted to create a studio space where I could give more one-on-one attention to each individual and at the same time provide a relaxing and comfortable environment.”
Stormy began working as a professional tattoo artist in 2001. He got his start as a tattoo artist at Big O Tattoo in Lincoln Nebraska. He then moved to Kansas City Missouri and began working for an extension of Big O tattoo, Irezumi Body Art. In 2007 and 2008 he was recognized and awarded KC's Best Tattoo Artist by KC Magazine. After 11 years of working in one of the busiest tattoo shops in Kansas City, Stormy made the decision to take a different direction with his art and branched out on his own. In 2012 he opened Tattoos by Stormy; which is a private, appointment only tattoo studio.
Stormy specializes in custom, one of a kind tattoo designs and cover-up work. He is best known for his signature style of Japanese tattooing, and he also has a fondness for American Traditional tattooing. He is interested in creating original art and designs that are distinctive to the individual.
