What Others Say

  • Lilith's Review

    Birdy is a PHENOMINAL artist and I can't think of a better person do large work with. He's considerate, professional, and extremely good with a tattoo needle. His space is well decorated and he's extremely accommodating for sensitivities and neurospicy folks. I've got multiple pieces from him that I love, they have gotten so so many compliments, and have aged beautifully. 10/10 absolutely recommend.

  • Clayton's Review

    The artists at Mesa Tattoo are the best! They are collaborative and kind, and genuinely want to make your tattoo experience something special. Whether you want custom design or something from their catalogs, you will not be disappointed. I was fortunate enough to work with Birdy over the course of 3-4 months to complete a half sleeve on my arm. He did a great job and I look forward to working with him again. Thank you for the great time!

  • Dea's Review

    Birdy was fantastic to work with. They created a very flexible space where I felt safe to ask for changes/adjustments to the tattoo and checked in with me frequently for how I was doing during tattooing. I will return Birdy!! Thank you for the Alexandrite flash!!

Services

Custom Tattoos

Artwork is created uniquely for you with your lifestyle, anatomy, and vision in mind. Customs can be any size and include large scale projects like sleeves and body-contour pieces. Clients may request their own idea, choose from available concepts, or collaborate with Birdy.

Flash Tattoos

If you crave the thrill of hunting through a catalogue to discover the perfect tattoo waiting just for you, flash is the way to go! Flash designs are pre-drawn, infinitely repeatable, and generally smaller than the palm of your hand.

Cover-Ups and Makeover Tattoos

Cover ups, blast overs, and re-works are all welcome projects. Almost anything can be transformed into something new and more aligned with the client's image. Best for people who can commit to a long term process with semi-frequent appointments.
