LOVE AND RESPECT FOR RICH TATTOO HISTORY

That’s me, Crispy! Tattooing in the wild at Ink Expression

I tattoo at Ink Expression Tattoo and Piercing in beautiful Mount Vernon, Iowa, and I would love to work with YOU!

My goal is to give you the best possible tattoo and experience. You will feel welcome here in the open and communal shop environment :-) See you soon!

I love traditional tattooing! American Traditional tattoos hold a unique place in the tattooing world. But guess what? I work hard to provide tattoos in many different styles from fine line and watercolor to Japanese and Traditional.

Custom tattoos are tailored to an individual's personal story, vision, and style, allowing for a one-of-a-kind design that speaks specifically to the wearer. This approach often incorporates elements that reflect personal meanings and experiences.
