Five artists, one roof. Each card flips. Pick who fits your idea, or book with “any artist” and we'll match you.
Jason Adkins
Owner. Some clients have sat with him for 10+ years. The king of the jungle when it comes to wildcats.
“He goes far beyond my expectations… amazing color-work, black and white, neotraditional, realism, and even did a kick ass cover up for me.”

General guidance. Your artist's instructions always come first.

Leave the second skin on
Keep the Derma Shield on for as long as your artist says, usually 3–5 days. Some fluid under it is normal.
- 02
Peel slowly, under warm water
Wash gently with unscented soap and lukewarm water. Pat dry with a clean paper towel.
- 03
Thin layer of ointment
A light layer of unscented lotion 2–3 times a day. Let it breathe. Less is more.
- 04
No soaking, no sun
No pools, Gulf, hot tubs or baths for 2 weeks. Keep it out of direct sun, then SPF forever.
- 05
Don't pick
Itching and flaking are normal. Hands off. Slap it lightly if you have to.
