ABOUT

My name is TJ and I work at Torchbearer Tattoo in Providence, Rhode Island. I have been tattooing professionally for a little over 13 years now almost exclusively on the West Side around historic Federal Hill. I tend to travel out to do guest spots or conventions a few times a year, but I mainly work at the shop.

​

I'm available Wednesday through Saturday from 11 AM to 7 PM and an occasional Tuesday by appointment. I take walk-ins between appointments based on time and availability so always call ahead of time to make sure I can take you.

​

I enjoy doing all styles of tattooing. I came up in street shops around incredible artists and have knowledge and expertise in a vast majority of tattoo designs and styles. my personal art mainly focuses on modern traditional, Japanese, fine line illustrative, and black and grey realism style tattoos. I am also perfectly content with portraits, script/type text, and blackwork. I also provide custom predesigned studies to choose from for those who like to collect.

​

I accept clientele from all walks of life and do not discriminate based on race, origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, or religion. Many of my clients have become friends over the years and I want everyone I tattoo to enjoy the time they spend inside the studio.
