    Ah Jaysus howehyes?

    John (until recently working in Celestial Ring abbey street) is opening a tattoo studio at 41 Arran Quay, ie the shop to the left of the Voodoo Lounge. It's sparkly new, spacious, clean, and best of all, has John in it. We would very much like it if you would givus an aul visit, cast you eye about the place and check it out. We are hoping to be all systems go by saturday.... don't leave us drinking tea and swearing all by ourselves....

    Pictures up in a few days.

    Thanks for the heads up, AFAIR it was him who did the UV tattoo for me so since I plan to get at least another one before Xmas and probably 2 black ink ones I'll probably pop along to this place as if it was him I was happy enough with his work last December.

    ... now I just have to figure out where this "Voodoo Lounge" is... lol

    will probably pop in at some point next week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 919 ✭✭✭Shelli


    Just as a matter of interest, whats the staff list like? You mentioned John (who I've wanted a piece by for a while now so I'll def be paying a visit), and Mark, my favourite piercer ever. Any other artists or apprentices?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 794 ✭✭✭hot2def


    I'll be working there too. That's it for the moment, I'll let you all know when the roster expands... :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,183 ✭✭✭✭Will


    Will you guys have a decent selection of jewellery? The only place thats reasonably ok for choice is celestial ring, more choice! :D pwease


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,702 ✭✭✭bounty_hunter

    :o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 486 ✭✭truthinwords


    Is there anywhere online that I can see John's work? The only piece of his I've seen is Mark's chest and that was excellent. Does anyone here have any work from him that they can post?

    xtruthx


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 919 ✭✭✭Shelli


    My ex got a calf piece done by him, it's sooo amazing, the colour is so bright, it looks like a sticker on his leg LOL......and the picture is really crisp and clean, lines are the sharpest I've seen in Dublin, John designed the piece too, he's just and amazing allround artist from what I've seen.

    I cant wait to get work done by him, gonna get him to do my backpiece hopefully, I'm in the process of scraping together the cash right now. I'm so delighted that I dont have to go to Celestial either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv

    Hey, just wanna say that I can't recommend this place enough. Just got home after getting a P.A done and I'm delighted with it. I'd never been so sfuking nervous in my life, but Mark talked everything through with me which helped a lot. Anyway, best of luck with the shop. I'll definitely be back for more work soon.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 6,817 ✭✭✭jenizzle


    I went in to visit yesterday!

    The place is shaping up very nicely, and I got free chocolatey goodness :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,766 ✭✭✭Reku


    I'll hopefully be by on Friday, all hinges on whether I can get the new tattoos I want drawn up by then, if not it'll just have to wait until later in the year.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 794 ✭✭✭hot2def


    buisness hours are 11 til 7


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,766 ✭✭✭Reku


    Have the 2 UV tatts I'll want done printed up so should be by tomorrow to book, hope to draw up a 3rd (non-UV though), maybe a fourth if my artistic abilities decide to play along, tonight so I can get that done too.

    Don't worry, I don't require treats for my custom.;)
