Local Biz Spotlight: Ink Penn Tattoo

Ink Penn Tattoo


I should premise this post by saying that my hubby nor myself actually has a tattoo, yet. However, when we decide to get tatted in the future, Ink Penn Tattoo, would be the place we would go. 

Co-owners, Jamaal Wilson and Michael Gonzalez (Gonzo), recently opened their shop together but each have been tattooing for 4 -5 years now. Being that they are a young biz, a little word of mouth advertising can be pretty important, so I wanted to show some love to Ink Penn Tattoo in hopes that you would check them out the next time you need to get a tattoo fix.

I personally have known co-owner Jamaal Wilson from high school back in the day ('97-ish) and am very familiar with his artistic talent. So it didn't surprise me when I heard he entered the tattooing industry. It's a great industry for him to branch out and master his skills even more, even if it is on people! 

I know, I know, even though someone can sketch or paint doesn't mean they can tattoo but in this case, Jamaal is definitely quite the ar-teest! I have been following his career via Facebook and Instagram, so I have been able to view his great work almost on a daily basis.. 

Unfortunately, I cannot vouch for Gonzo at this time but knowing Jamaal, he didn't select his biz partner by chance! But looking at pictures of tattoos he has done, I can tell he is very talented as well.

With any piece of art, you have to see the piece of work in order to evaluate the talent. See for yourself, how good they are! Here are some pics of their work.

  1. Tattoos are so cool! I don't know if I'll actually ever get one, but I like to think about what I'd get if I do get one.

    1. I think tattoos are really cool too! I just could never come up with a design I wanted on my body for the rest of my life. Now, is a different story. The hubs and I are waiting to reach some of our fitness goals before rewarding ourselves. :)
