Booking & Consultations

  • You can submit an inquiry through my online booking form here

  • While not always necessary for every tattoo design, consultations are preferred for custom pieces and large scale American Traditional and Japanese tattoo projects. A Consultation gives us the opportunity to discuss in person the design, placement, and pricing.

  • I typically book 2-3 months out, though time for flash designs may be available sooner.

  • I am working at Rainbow Demon, a Denver tattoo studio, however I travel often for guest spots and tattoo conventions.


Pricing & Deposits

  • Yes, a non-refundable deposit is required to secure your appointment and goes toward the cost of the tattoo at the final sitting.

  • A deposit is required to secure your tattoo appointment. This deposit will be applied toward the final cost of your tattoo at the last session.

    Deposits are non-refundable, and cancellations will result in the forfeiture of your deposit.

    For rescheduling requests, deposits can be transferred to a new appointment date if at least 48 hours' notice is provided. Rescheduling with less than 48 hours' notice will result in the loss of the deposit, and a new deposit will be required to secure another appointment.

    The deposit is meant to hold a specific time slot. When rescheduling, a new date must be selected at the time of rescheduling to honor the original deposit.

    Two or more consecutive rescheduling requests will require a new deposit to continue holding your appointment.

    Deposits are non-transferable to other individuals or changes to the agreed-upon tattoo design or subject matter.

  • Pricing depends on size and detail. I offer both hourly rates and flat quotes depending on the project. Large-scale Japanese work and some American traditional pieces typically require multiple sessions. My goal is to price each tattoo fairly and competitively with other Denver artists.

  • Cash is preferred, but I also accept credit cards with a additional processing fee.


tattoo Designs & Flash

  • I’m happy to work with your tattoo idea. Reference images are a great way to communicate what you have in mind and create a custom tattoo piece just for you.

    • Yes, I have up-for-grabs tattoo designs regularly posted on my Instagram @marksomething as well as flash designs available

  • Minor changes may be possible—just ask!


Tattoo Preparation

  • Eat a good meal, stay hydrated, and avoid alcohol for 24 hours beforehand.

  • Please wear comfortable clothing that you are okay with possibly being stained with tattoo pigment and that easily allows access the area being tattooed.

  • Rainbow Demon Tattoo can often be a very busy shop. Due to space and focus, I ask clients to come alone unless special arrangements are made in advance.

  • Do not apply any topical numbing products to the area being tattooed before your appointment unless we have discussed prior to your tattoo appointment.


  • After your tattoo appointment, I’ll send tattoo aftercare instructions via email, but you can also read them in the aftercare section of my website here

  • Avoid pools, saunas, sun exposure, and tight clothing over the tattoo for at least 2 weeks.

  • Please reach out! I’m happy to check in and offer advice.

Aftercare & Healing


  • Yes—tattooing is for everyone, and I’m experienced in working on all skin tones.

  • I offer free touch-ups within the first 3 months for normal healing issues.

  • I typically work by appointment, but I occasionally will announce walk-in tattoo availability on my Instagram @marksomething
