Landon Morgan’s curated list, Authentic Tattoo Artists to Know, celebrates the true Artists who have shaped his journey, grounded his values, and exemplified integrity in an evolving industry. This list isn’t just about aesthetics; it encompasses presence, principle, and the quiet leadership found in Artists who remain true to their voice.
From emerging talents who challenge themselves to veterans who set an example, every Artist featured here embodies the authenticity that earns respect without demanding it. Through this selection, Landon invites clients and fellow Artists to reflect on the deeper connections tattoos can forge, ones rooted in mutual respect, shared growth, and the courage to be oneself.
Landon Morgan is a Denver, Colorado–based Artist known for his dark, illustrative work and deep-cut nerd references, from Lord of the Rings to classic video games. However, his career began in a vastly different place: spring break walk-ins in Panama City Beach.
After studying philosophy and feeling disillusioned with conventional life, Landon turned to tattooing as both an escape and a calling. From Florida to Atomic Tattoo in Tampa, and then on a whim to Brooklyn, Landon’s career took shape through trial, terror, and trust. His early years in New York became a crucible, pushing him to grow quickly and honor the craft with seriousness and soul.
Influenced by old German printmakers and maritime engravings, Landon has forged a style that is visually striking, culturally rich, and unapologetically personal. Today, his work often explores the human condition, filtered through both darkness and curiosity.
