At Black Gold Tattoo, we take pride in offering exceptional tattoo artistry, and at the heart of our sister shop Crimson Empire Tattoo is Curt, the owner and a highly skilled tattoo artist. With a career spanning over two decades, Curt has been tattooing since 2004, specializing in both illustrative and Japanese tattooing. His deep knowledge of these styles, combined with years of experience, has made him a go-to artist for those looking for bold, timeless tattoos.

The Art of Illustrative and Japanese Tattooing

Illustrative tattooing is a versatile style that blends fine art with bold design elements, creating dynamic and expressive pieces. Japanese tattooing, on the other hand, is steeped in tradition, often featuring powerful imagery like koi fish, dragons, samurai, and cherry blossoms. Curt’s mastery of these styles allows him to create intricate, meaningful tattoos that are rich in symbolism and artistic depth.
