Ascending Koi Tattoo & Apparel (Headquarters)

Description

With some formal training at ACAD, Rove learned to become a “jack of all trades” artist. In addition to illustration, Rove excels in many other art forms including ink, watercolor, and graphic design. Over the years his work has ranged from painting & portrait commissions to oil & gas illustration to graphic design and everything in between. Somewhere along the road a friend suggested tattooing. After some thought, Rove started an apprenticeship and quickly realized he had discovered an art form that rivaled his passion for illustration. Finding a career that married his creative skills, love of art and goofy personality made tattooing an easy choice. Rove has been tattooing for over 7 years now, claiming his stake in the world of permanent body art while constantly learning and drawing inspiration from Ascending Koi’s talented family!.

*A service fee of $250 will be charged if client shows up drunk or high in our environment. We provide a safe and family-friendly space for our clients and ask that people take responsibility for the energy they bring into this space. Abuse towards our staff and/or clients will also result in a $250 charge, per incident. And you will be asked to leave. **We will NOT tattoo anyone under the influence of alcohol or illicit drugs. Moisturize the skin with a perfume free lotion daily to soften the skin and keep it hydrated and evenly toned and textured. Drink plenty of water! This aids in maintaining hydration and “plumps” the skin in preparation for your time in the chair. Get a good night sleep! If the site of your tattoo is in an area that tends to have abundant hair growth, (legs, arms, chest, stomach), shave the area the morning of your appointment. If you cannot reach the area, your artist will shave the area prior to your tattoo. **The morning of your appointment, it is important to eat a generous breakfast containing plenty of protein! Bring bottled water and snacks with you to your appointment.
