I've been going to Matt at Boneface Ink since 2012. The shop, located on the top floor of an office building near the entrance to Cory Station, is unassuming from the outside, but inside it is spacious, brightly lit, and exceptionally clean. There is a decent sized waiting area, and the spaces where the artists do their work all have a good amount of room so they aren't bumping into each other. I have 13 large custom tattoos, all done by Matt, and every one of them gets me stopped and asked who did them (and since I've moved to Atlanta, a lot of disappointed groans when they find out he's in Florida!). From start to finish, from design to sketch to setting up his workspace to actually doing the tattoo, Matt is a PERFECTIONIST, which is exactly what you want in a tattoo artist! Matt is humble, but prides himself on 2 things: the quality of his work, and his honesty. If you are looking for an artist that will tattoo whatever you want, wherever you want, Matt is not the guy for you. He's been doing high level tattooing for long enough that he KNOWS if a piece will not work in a specific area, and is what you want is not going to last the rigors of time... And he will refuse to do a piece if he knows that what you want will not reflect well upon him as an artist. He is accommodating and personable to a point, but he has zero tolerance for bullshit, stupidity, and diva behavior. That's one reason I respect him so much, because I'm the same way! That, and he's one of the smartest people I've had the pleasure of getting to know! So if you are looking for a WELL DONE piece of flash, or a custom piece that will turn heads for the rest of your life, book an appointment with Matt. Don't be a dick; bring your ideas and listen to his advice and opinion; he's got enough experience and an amazing artistic eye, you won't regret making changes if what you have in mind just won't quite work, trust me! Follow his aftercare instructions (looking at you, beach bunnies who go swimming the day after they get tattooed and wonder why the ink comes out, and dudes getting hot and sweaty and dirty at the gym and wondering why their piece got infected... dumbasses), add you'll have a piece you will be happy to show off until the day you die! read more

Matt is an absolutely amazing tattoo artist. I chose to get my first tattoo done by him and I'm so glad I did. My sister has many tattoos and highly recommended him when we discussed getting some sort of matching "sister" tattoo. I was so pleased that I had him do my next tattoo. And considering I live in Ohio and the shop is in Florida is testement enough to how good he is. I have an idea but let him look at placement of where I want it and then let him draw up a design that he thinks works best in the area I want it. If you want a great tattoo and an amazing artist he's definitely the man. But he has the integrity that will not do a shoddy tattoo someplace it will look bad or age poorly. If you take his advice and follow his after care instructions you will have a beautiful piece of art on your body that will stand the test of time and get many compliments. My husband also got his first and next tattoo done by Matt as well. Top notch tattoo artist and an absolutely awesome person to know! read more

If you are looking for a masterful, brilliant artist who completely redefines the tattoo experience, look no further. Bone is an absolute legend and the coolest dude you will ever meet. His talent is unmatched--whether you want a piece drenched in vibrant color or flawless black and gray, his work is extraordinary. His line work is beautifully crisp and precise. Beyond his incredible art, his customer service is next level. He is unbelievably accommodating, letting me in before and after regular hours to fit my schedule. He is awesome to hang out with and makes the entire session a breeze. I am officially a lifelong client and would never go anywhere else! My sleeve is gorgeous, my chest piece is beautiful, and my husband's neck looks fire! We can NOT thank you enough!! read more

i have been getting my tattoos from damen joe for several years now and have watched him grow over the years. he is and always will be my favorite tattoo artist. he has done amazing work on me every single time. his lines are on point the shading is perfect and even the tattoos i have got years ago still to this day look as great as ever. he is very clean and professional. he takes the brand new needles out of the pack right in front of you. he also makes my visit enjoyable with great conversation. i reccomend him to everyone that i know. so consider geting your work from him before being cheap and getting shit work from an un professional dirty home tattooer. read more

I've gotten major work done at Boneface ink and have nothing but a positive experience. Ryan and Matt have always been professional and treated me with respect, always made sure I liked the piece even before the stencil went on my body. I had the final say in the placement and content of the tattoo. Anytime I've given Ryan a half ass idea for a piece he ran with it and turned it into a true work of art. I recommend Boneface Ink to everyone who ask about my art.... read more
