Welcome to the portfolio page of tattoo artist Adam Sky. I sincerely hope that you'll enjoy and find inspiration from the images of tattoo work that I've created for my clients.
I began my training as a tattoo artist in Vancouver in 1987. I opened Sacred Heart Tattoo at it's original location on Vancouver's West Side in 1993 and subsequently sold it in 1996. From there I became a full time traveling tattoo artist, working in street shops in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New Orleans and Miami, garnering more cultural and technical experience to take with me back to Vancouver.
In 1998 I returned to Vancouver and to Sacred Heart Tattoo as a contracted tattooist, spending the next few years between Vancouver and Toronto, my place of birth where I worked part time at New Tribe during the busy summer months.
In 2001 I started the web site Tattoodles.com with a vision of a communal gallery of tattoo designs featuring works from international artists. Since it's inception the site has grown in to an online Goliath boasting over 80,000 members! In 2005 Tattoodles absorbed the Read Street Tattoo Forum; what I feel is the most respected and comprehensive tattoo artist discussion forum on the Web.
In 2005 I started writing feature articles for Tattoo Artist Magazine, the tattoo industry's foremost trade journal.
In 2006 I left Sacred Heart to open my own private tattoo studio in Gastown where I had the freedom to be selective about the tattoos I wanted to do. In 2010 I moved the studio from Gastown to Granville Island and in 2011 I began spending equal time between Vancouver, B.C. and San Francisco, California.
Operating my own private studio allows me to spend more time exploring my creative style and improving my artistic ability which I feel gives me the time and versatility to create a better product for my clients.
I am a custom tattoo artist; meaning that I design a unique tattoo specifically for the client based on their ideas and concepts. I invite you to contact me using the form on my contact page with your ideas for your new tattoo or please feel free to drop me a note if you just have some general questions regarding the work that I do.
Thanks for reading and thank you for your interest in my tattoo art!
