Quest's New Portfolio

   Chicago has a lot of great tattoo artists. The windy city has produced many greats. I love it here and coming from out west I hope to make a good addition to an already phenomenal community.
    This is a new portion of my portfolio to show about ten years experience tattooing. Although not every tattoo is displayed by far, I can only hope the work you see here speaks for itself. 
    Unfortunately, I lost my old  artwork. That was about 3 years ago with a big move and huge change in my life. I took off from tattooing on a semi-regular basis for a couple years -inevitably friends and family wanting work brought me back out of seclusion. I am finally back and wanting to start fresh.
    I can do full custom pieces or any flash you see online or in a shop. My minimum is $50, and my rates are very competitive. I do however charge extra if I have to draw the picture from scratch. Time = Money. 
    I'm currently putting together my shop here in Palatine. I use high-end machines, TatSoul Envy needles, Wrath tubes, Intenze Colored Ink, Kuro Sumi Black/Grey. Colors that will STAY vibrant.  I  barrier everything and use strict, safe, anti-blood borne cross contamination practices in general, as well as guard against a more common problem in the industry in my opinion and that is bacteria like staph. There is no "almost perfect" in clean for tattooing.
