Frequently Asked Questions

What Do You Like To Tattoo?

As long as you are willing to let me interpret your concept in either my dotwork or traditional style, I am happy to cater to most client inquiries. Allowing me creative freedom in the design process is always appreciated, and I feel that I put out my best work when I receive that trust from the client.

I am interested in projects involving (but not limited to) the following:

moths, butterflies, insects
snakes
skulls
florals, mushrooms, houseplants
tarot cards
classic Halloween imagery
armor, daggers, morning stars
castles, churches

How Do I Contact You?

I can be contacted directly through email (mbeck_tattoos@yahoo.com), or by submitting a consultation form on my Home or Contact page. The consultation form outlines all the information I generally need from a client, and may serve as the best accessible option for new clients. I will NOT respond to DMs or text messages.

Where Are You Located?

Self Made Tattoo in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

What Are Your Rates?

My rate is $125 per hour, and I require a $100 deposit for all new projects. I accept cash, card, Paypal, and Venmo as forms of payment.

Will You Tattoo Minors?

No. You must be 18 or older to receive a tattoo from me.

When Will I See The Finished Design?

I will have the design fully prepared the day of your appointment. Before we begin stenciling, we will have a chance to review the design and make any minor changes (if necessary). If the design does not meet your expectations and you would like to have it redrawn, your appointment will be rescheduled. Please be as detailed as possible during the consultation so that this scenario is less likely to occur.

Is There Anything You Will Not Tattoo?

I am not interested in any projects involving fine line or "micro" designs, script, realism (portraits or otherwise), geometric motifs, or coverups. If your inquiry involves a piece that I am not comfortable/not interested in tattooing, I will refer you to another local artist. This is not intended to hurt feelings, I just want to remain selective with the projects I take on so I can ensure my clients receive the best work I can provide.

Most importantly, I will not tattoo any design that exhibits any racist, sexist, or homophobic qualities.
