Nate Nash
AVERAGE AVAILABLITY: TUESDAY - SATURDAY
Nate Nash has been tattooing since 2016 and has been a pencil still-life artist since childhood. Nate's tattoo style naturally focuses on black and gray realism - with a strong talent for photo-realistic portraits. His portraiture work has earned him multiple awards - so if you're looking to get a lifelike face (or skull!) of a person, pet/animal, or pop-culture icon - you're in great hands.
While portraits are his specialty, Nate brings the same level of detail and care to all of his tattoos. He's down for just about any idea as long as it falls under realism - including coverups and bold styles like trash polka that mix realism with graphic elements. Whether you're into nature-inspired designs like animals, birds, flowers and bugs, or prefer something darker like skulls, demons or horror pieces - Nate's all about turning your idea into a killer custom tattoo.Â
