I was born on the west coast of Florida, have a Bachelor’s in Fine Art, and I’ve been tattooing 5 years currently working in Atlanta, GA at Sacred Heart Tattoo. Proud member of Ink Fusion, I love tattooing anything related to comics and gaming, animals, and pinups. Custom work or flash, I’m a good listener who will work with you to create the tattoo you’re looking for. Looking forward to coming out and working on some rad Star Wars pieces! Currently hoping for more work around Force Awakens, but would love to tattoo a Luke, more lightsabers, and a Wicket!

Ian Simon

Ian Simon was a high functioning robot from the crab nebula, when he crash landed in the great Michigan wilderness………wait , wrong story of Ian. After 3 years of art school, he dropped out and started his first apprenticeship for tattooing and piercing in 2004. He worked for a bunch of different shops, looking for the right fit, finally opening his own studio in Youngstown Ohio in 2009, Bitter Hearts Tattoo quickly gained a reputation for being a fun and professional atmosphere and spawned the eventual tourcareer Ian started in 2014. He had done conventions as an apprentice, but now under his own banner he finally could compete. In his first year out he won twelve awards. He traveled between the east coast and chicago and did quite a few guest spots as well. All the while gaining acclaim at home for his realism and cover-up skills. Finally in the beginning of 2015 he was added to the roster of the Ink Fusion Empire and now plans to expand his reach and range even more. Currently he is working on a self-produced graphic novel named “Soul”, doing commission painting and pencil renderings, logo and design work, band albums and promotions, as well as continuing to built a series of prints of his own artwork. Ian has won countless awards for his tattoos at conventions nationwide.

Hello, my name is Jersey Jay Wymbs. I am an artist and owner of Pogue Mahone Tattoo Company in Red Bank, New Jersey. I have been a lover of art as far back as I can remember and a tattoo artist since 1991. I like to work in multiple mediums including charcoal, oil pastel, oil paint, digital design and tattooing to name a few.
When I’m not busy working I enjoy family time, traveling, movies, live music, fishing and my dog. I believe finding enjoyment in all aspects of daily life is the key to inspiration and a life fulfilled with happiness. With that being said, I approach my art in a similar manner. Whether its painting for fun or creating elaborate tattoos, I want each piece to be unique and make people feel something that will make them smile.
As a tattoo artist I specialize in color work, mainly: Cover Ups, Color Portraiture and Asian Inspired. I like to be versatile in all styles of tattoo design from traditional Asian or Americana to soft black and grey and everything in between. Each client is unique and individually expressive and I want to be able to make everyone happy in their own skin regardless of style.
I would like to invite you to preview my portfolio at any of my Facebook Pages, Jersey Jay Wymbs, Tattoos by Jersey Jay Wymbs or Pogue Mahone Tattoo Company. To Book an appointment please call the studio @ (732) 383-TAT0 (8280) or contact me via e-mail @ .

Tori Winkle

I started professionally tattooing 7 yrs ago.  My interest in tattooing was spawned at an early age,since I always wanted to be an artist of all mediums, but i seriously started researching it in 1995 while attending Columbus College of Art and Design.  Since the age of 16, I’ve had various artistic jobs such as designing and creating signs, logos, comissioned paintings, and book illustration.
I think Ink Fusion would be a wonderfully fun opportunity! I am a huge fan girl whom frequents horror cons and comic cons when i’m not working.  To take the profession I love and combine it with the nerdy pastime that I love would be a dream come true!! The town I live in is very small.  I work a few tattoo conventions throughout the year and i love the experience of working in different locations and meeting new people.  Ink Fusion would be a great opportunity to possibly create con-inspired tattoosthat i dont get a chance to do in my home town.  Also learning from fellow artists, exchanging ideas, and creating an extended family is always great!
I think this opportunity would be a tremendous chance to grow as a person and an artist!
I’ve attached some examples of my work.  I tend to do quite a bit of realism but i love to create fun new school as much as possible.  Thank you for your time!
