About Adam

Adam Gibson is a Los Angeles based artist with 15 years experience. With a traditional tattoo upbringing he has worked in shops for half his life now, blending Americana and south western imagery, with outlaw biker, and queer flamboyance to his designs. Whether it’s a one shot tattoo or large scale work his style shows through his work in both black and grey or his distinct color palate. Although home base is LA, you can find him tattooing in the western US or in his international travels. His aim is to give you a laid back yet professional experience from the moment you walk through the door. Looking forward to tattooing you and thanks kindly.
