TAKING WALK-INS DAILY

Dan Stalnaker

MAIN STREET

Art has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve always known that I wanted to build a career around creating, but it took the people around me telling me that tattooing was where I belonged for me to finally listen.

My artistic background has taken me through a lot of different avenues over the years, with graffiti being one of the biggest influences on my development as an artist. Graffiti pushed me to practice, experiment, develop my own eye, and constantly find ways to improve my craft. That same mindset is something I bring with me into tattooing.

My current focus includes American traditional, neo-traditional, blackwork, ornamental, and black & grey. I enjoy exploring different styles and techniques, and I’m always looking for opportunities to learn and expand my artistic range. For me, becoming a better tattoo artist is an ongoing process, and there’s always another style, technique, or idea to explore.

One of my favorite parts of tattooing is getting to know the people behind the tattoos. Everyone has a different story, perspective, and reason for choosing the art they put on their body. I genuinely enjoy hearing those stories and getting to know my clients. It’s given me the opportunity to meet people I otherwise never would have and continually expand the way I see the world.

My goal is to create tattoos that feel personal to the person wearing them while continuing to grow as an artist with every piece I make. I’m excited to keep learning, experimenting, and pushing my artwork into new directions.
