About Landon Morgan
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.

“There are amazing Artists out there who are also approachable, human, and care deeply about what they make for you.” -Landon Morgan
