Meet the artist
More than
a tattoo.
I'm Chris Davis — the artist behind Lost Lotus Ink. I specialize in black & grey realism with color, working from your photos and references to design a narrative piece that flows with your body.
Every part of the process is intentional — a free consultation, a collaborative design, and a calm session in a clean, private studio. You leave with a high-quality, custom art piece for your skin.

Styles & specialties
Black & Grey Realism
01My specialty — smooth gradients and lifelike depth in black and grey. Portraits, nature and narrative pieces built to read for decades.
Color Realism
02Realism with color woven in — rich, saturated and true to the reference, shaded to sit naturally in the skin.
Custom & Narrative
03Every piece is designed from scratch around your idea and references — a story that flows with your body, never flash off a wall.
Cover-ups & Rework
04Turning old or unfinished ink into something you're proud of — realism and shading that reclaims the space.

How it works
From idea to ink
Consultation
A free, no-pressure consult. We talk through your idea, references, placement and budget — and design it together.
Deposit
A deposit locks your date and gets the design started — and it's credited toward the final price of your tattoo.
Design
I draw a custom piece made only for you, built to flow with your body. We refine it until it's right, before any needle.
The Session
A calm session in a clean, private studio. You leave with intentional, high-quality art — more than a tattoo.
Kind words
From the chair
Incredible work! I came in to get an old tattoo covered up with a specific mountain range, and he nailed the exact style I was looking for. On top of being extremely talented, he was so calm, kind, and professional throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend!
Chris was super nice and made sure I felt comfortable the whole time. It came out beautifully — he brought my vision to life perfectly, exactly how I described and hoped it would. Would recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing, stress-free experience. Thank you Chris for doing my first tattoo!
