I have been tattooing since 1991. I fell in love with the tattoo industry when I realized it was a form of art. At that point, I never looked back and set out to be the best I knew how. Since that day, I have been published and have won several awards for tattooing. I opened Skin City in 2000, with the hopes of giving people a good experience in a safe and friendly environment.

My name is Nikk, I have been enthralled by tattooing since I was in second grade. After going to college for Mechanical Engineering and Physics, I realized I wanted to follow my passion for art and tattooing. I finally began my journey to become a tattooer in 2020 when I started my apprenticeship at Skin City. Eventually, I would love to specialize in Traditional Japanese Irezumi, although I find beauty in all forms of tattooing.

I go by Danyel or Danny. I’ve loved drawing ever since I was just a little one. After high school I extended my art practices at Portland Community College and knew that tattooing was going to be the way to fulfill my artistic passion. So here I am! I went through the apprenticeship program at Skin City with Joe as my mentor and so happy to continue on here. Being fresh to the industry, I am very open to taking on a variety of styles and am excited to collab with you!

Hi my name is Olivia. I’m originally from southern California and started my apprenticeship at Skin City in 2018, and received my license In 2020. I love doing delicate black and grey tattoos, stippling, soft colors, and nature imagery, but am not limited to those styles.

Aside from tattooing, I love snowboarding, painting, knitting, binge watching Netflix, and baking fancy desserts.
