There are numerous concerning aspects about Eric's conduct as an artist. They have shown a pattern of dishonesty, taking deposits for appointments and then repeatedly canceling them or causing delays until clients grow weary. Moving between multiple shops, changing contact numbers, and failing to deliver on paid designs are just some of the issues I've personally encountered over the past two years. I paid $1200 for a design that remains unfinished, with Eric demanding additional funds before completing it. This prolonged ordeal has involved interactions with other dissatisfied customers who are owed money for similar reasons. Many individuals are reluctant to speak out due to Eric's artistic prowess, but the truth must be exposed. Reports suggest they have substance abuse problems, lack a valid driver's license, and are embroiled in personal dramas that spill over into their professional commitments. Recent updates indicate that they have been operating without a tattooing license for over seven months. Caution is advised. I cannot in good conscience recommend them or their establishment to anyone. It's disheartening because I believe in their artistic potential and sincerely hope they can rectify their situation and embrace honesty in their dealings.
Eric is an extraordinary artist and his craftsmanship is truly outstanding. I had the pleasure of having two sessions with them, and I must say they went above and beyond my expectations. Working with them was a great experience. If I had the option, I would give them a rating of 10 stars without hesitation. It's clear why their schedule is always full and there's a waiting list for their services.
I want to start off by acknowledging that Eric is undeniably one of the top artists in the region. Their artistic skills are exceptional, but unfortunately, that's where the praise ends. While their talent is undeniable, their reliability is highly questionable. From starting appointments hours late to lacking basic organization in their business to the point of not even knowing when our session was scheduled. Moreover, requesting a deposit for two hours of work only to increase the price days before the appointment. I understand the need to cover expenses, but if their business was in order, the original rate of 200 per hour would have sufficed rather than the sudden jump to 250 after 5 months. I have invested around 5k in Eric's work, recognizing their talent, but even after this investment, my sleeve remains unfinished. Stories of individuals being financially exploited by them are circulating, and there are talks of a potential class action lawsuit. More people are starting to come forward to shed light on the true nature of their business practices. If Eric were more reliable, they could easily be one of the top artists in the nation. However, for anyone considering getting a tattoo, I strongly advise looking elsewhere. It's truly disappointing. Personally, I have decided not to return to complete my sleeve due to the unnecessary hassle. The issues with retaining deposits for extended periods may not even be legal. There are also rumors that they may not currently hold a valid tattooing license. Once again, it's a regrettable situation, but I highly recommend seeking tattoo services elsewhere until their business affairs are in order.
