I started tattooing in Venice, CA area 30 years ago. After a couple of years I landed a formal apprenticeship from RJ & Dottie of famously Tabu Tattoo, giving me a solid foundation (many thanks to them). 

   I then moved to the central California area to start my family and continued building my tattoo career. There I spent 18 years working and managing several shops eventually owning Lions Den and The Parlor. Later moving to the Pacific North West.

   I have been in the Portland Oregon area for the majority of the last decade, continuing to ply my trade.

   Having worked street shops most of my career; I became versatile in most genres of tattooing such as Traditional, Japanese and Black and Grey... pretty much anything that makes a solid tattoo.

   I can be reached at the shop or Direct Message my Instagram @ jaysavij
