Our Artists' Favorite Tattoos | Tattoo Artists React

Have you ever wondered who your favorite artist's favorite artist is? We asked the cast of Season 23 to tell us their favorite tattoo of all time.

(For full transparency, we told them it could be one they've seen in the world, one they've done or one they have on themselves so don't @ them for saying their own. GOT IT?)

Matt truiano’s son saying that the new baby’s name was going to be triceratops, like it was the most obvious thing in the world, was so funny and cute

I can second Steve Moore being very kind for people reaching out. He did a wonderful piece of art that was used on the StepChild Headless Horseman snowboard in 2010 or so. I loved that board, loved the graphic and because I was never going to get to Canada to have him do it I had a friend do it - Karl Atkins, a fucking great UK tattoo artist.

I sent an email with a pic of the finished tattoo and he sent a lovely reply back.

Seeing tattooers fan girl over other tattooers makes me so happy!

Simon Bell is absolutely insane, his pieces are always so clean. Hope to travel his way someday for a piece

My first tattoo wa at 50 at the oldest shop in Modesto, CA, Good Time Charlie's End of the Trail, and when I wanted my first ink that's where I went. It was pandemic time and the owner came in and did my work. It closed down shortly after and I am pretty sure it was Charlie's grandson that did my tattoo as one of the last likely done. So for me that was the best tattoo ever :)

Dear Glyphomancer...

As a trans person; I'm fairly sure you don't want anyone to forget your pro-nouns or misgender you, right??

But you can't be bothered to remember another artist's name in your same field ?
