Who the F@#K is
Jessica Scott
Jessica Scott, aka @mctattedjess, is the co-owner of @ivytattoostudio in Victoria BC. She’s been a tattooing professional for 12 years now and isn't shy about sharing her love for black and grey Realism, it’s what she does.
Once the client is in the chair, Jessica trusts her artwork to Kwadron Cartridges and Eternal Ink, while her machine of choice is currently the FK Irons ONE, a no frills Pen machine that Black and Grey artists seem to really love.
Without making this sound like a dating app, environmental activist Jessica loves growing her own food, painting, playing with animals, and taking long walks on the beach (I made that last part up). All of these passions can be clearly seen in her work (except the beach part, I made that up).
Thanks for sharing Jessica!

Who the F@#K is
Justin Coe
Meet Justin Coe, one of the newer faces at Cottage13 in Hamilton ON. Justin is one of the artists joining the shop to help fill the gap left when one of our all time favourite tattooers (Jen Stewart) retired last year (but we won't hold that against him or her).
Tattooing for 6 years now, Justin describes his style as Neo-Traditional/Illustrative, but he also enjoys tapping into black and grey Realism from time to time. When talking about his favourite products, Justin says that any day he gets to use his trusty Sol Nova Unlimited machine to lay in some Fusion Ink Brick Red, or Solid Ink’s El Dorado, is a good day.
When he’s not in the shop, Justin can be found cycling the Hammer or further scratching that creative itch via his side hustle: wood burning, and mirror carving. You can check out some of his work at @burnsnscratches.
Thanks for sharing man!

Who the F@#K is
Katie Leith
You’ll find Katie working at epitaphtattoo in Binbrook, a small shop in a small town… with BIG TALENT. Thanks to her generous hashtags we’ve been able to drool all over her work for a while now, and we’re stoked that she agreed to share some of her favourite products with us.
Now 7 years in, Katie is known for her bright and bold Neo-Traditional style which is heavily influenced by movies and Halloween imagery. When she’s not on the road or in the shop, you’ll often find her with a brush in her hand as she works to master another art form; Realism oil painting. As a self-described sneaker geek (ok, my words not hers), she’d get along great with our warehouse overlord Bob who’s been known to hoard a shoe box or two, and even has some custom painted ones! Something to think about Katie…

Who the F@#K is
Kyle Bannerman
Even with 13 years in the books, Kyle still has a hard time defining his style… but when pushed, he says it’s “Bright & Bold” and that he enjoys taking the principles of Traditional tattoos and applying them to other styles.
This lucky dude calls Ironside Tattoo & Piercing in Charlottetown, PEI his home. A man after my own heart, Kyle spends his downtime “crate-digging” for new records (vinyl, but never vinyls to you kids out there) or just chilling with his family and friends.
Last year Kyle, along with 2 other incredible artists @pokey.rae and @bliss.tattoo, started an event called #INKclusive during Pride PEI week to help raise money and awareness for a local 2SLGBTQIA+ charity - this year it’s @gacpei. Thanks to the incredible community support, this year’s Inkclusive event is being expanded to include 6 artists tattooing all day long (we’re proud to be an event sponsor).
