Matthew Madison

I’m originally from Savannah, Georgia. I grew up drawing and being influenced by skateboard graphics, anime, and metal album covers. Eventually I started collecting tattoo magazines on the cusp of the wave of tattoo reality tv and I knew then that it was something that I wanted to do. I’ve worked in couple shops in the last years that didn’t go anywhere, until I got my official start in 2016. I moved out to Seattle in August 2020 and I’ve been dialing in my craft.

I’m influenced by American traditional, Neo-traditional, Japanese, and ornamental pattern work. I like my tattoos to have bright colors, heavy black, and varied line weights. My go to subject matters are nature themes, skulls, and flowers.
