Jose is great. Professional, fair rates and an actual artist (ask to see his sketches theyre beautiful).I came in with a rough design for a traditional style tattoo and he cleaned it up and improved it. His go to style is realism, and the attention to detail that requires showed in his work. Ill probably be back for another tattoo soon and Id want him to do it because I can tell hes passionate about his work and art, we talked for about an hour about John Singer Sargent, Giger, painting and tattoos.If you want a high quality tattoo and an tattoo artist thats willing to work with you and take input while providing their own, then ask for a consultation.
If youre ever in need of getting a tattoo, This is where youll want to go! Big or small, first tattoo or a repeat customer, you wont be disappointed. Ive been going to the same artist and business partner for over 15years now and have never once been disappointed. Sang and Jose have always been friendly and very professional each time I go in for a session. Their art is amazing, theyre are really chill, fun, and energetic people. Their location is really peaceful and Beautiful because its right in the waterfront of lake Union! A really awesome and safe location! If you dont believe me, just check them out yourself! I highly recommend it!
Wow, Jose is great! My wife and I celebrated our 40th with our first tattoos. I cannot say enough good things about how welcoming and flexible Jose is. We had some last minute design changes day of our appointment and he was more than accommodating. His work is amazing and my wife and I have received nothing but complements! We will be coming back for more soon!
Best Tattooing experience I’ve ever had, I am very pleased with the whole process, very easy and straight forward. I came for a full sleeve and gave my artist Sang some ideas I had in mind and showed him some pictures I’ve had inspiration from and he was able to put together an incredible piece of art with his own unique style. I am blessed to come across this great artist, he puts a lot of effort and time into his craft and I can definitely say this is the guy you would want if you want a special unique piece done. Words cannot describe the attention to detail he puts into his work and I will be coming back for more. Sang is super chill and friendly and would 100% recommend!
I drove from Vancouver, Wa and Sang did my cover up. He’s an amazing artist and If you’re looking for an amazing artist to add to your tattoos or help you cover up a mistake I highly recommend him!!
Jose Camarillo is the best tattoo artist I have ever worked with. I can’t believe I never reviewed him from my first piece in 2019. I look forward to planning a few more pieces with him. Jose not only listened to my idea, but helped build a piece of art that I constantly get asked about 4 years later. He helped me create a design I loved and also got to use his creative freedom to free hand some awesome background details within the tattoo. Jose, you are amazing!
It’s been about 8 years since I got my first tattoo by Jose, it is still so beautiful, I get compliments everyday, and the lines are still so strait and crisp. Still my favorite tattoo with so much meaning behind it.
Art Never Dies is true to their name. Everyone I have had to opportunity to work with there never disappoints. The scheduling is always on point and the finish product is what was promised without charging an arm and leg like most tattoo establishments that are currently open in the greater Seattle area. I have had the pleasure of working with the owner Jose for the last three years working on both my sleeves as well as other tattoos on my body. His art is truly amazing and I am fortunate to have found a real artist I can trust with what will be on my body forever.I recommend this establishment to anyone looking for new body art with the highest praise and will continue to be a customer for the rest of my tattoo needs indefinitely.
Jose is a great artist and really good person. I got a full sleeve done in early 2021. He took my complex idea with a lot of tough elements to fit into a single piece and made it into a seamless piece of art that perfectly represents what I was looking for. Importantly, in contrast to a lot of tattoo shops, the vibe of the shop is friendly, unintimidating, and welcoming. I would definitely get more work done here and would 100% recommend to a friend with complete confidence.
I came here for my very first tattoo. Kevin was my artist and I couldnt be more happy with it. The process was smooth and painless. Kevin and I had some great conversations which took my mind off of the uncomfortable parts. He answered all my questions after promptly as well. I didnt feel rushed or anything like that. After my tattoo was done he places a bandage and aftercare instructions were very easy and simple. Nice views here as well. I really enjoyed my time here and will recommend this place to my friends. I got to meet the owner and he seemed very nice as well.
Jose did my husbands portrait tattoo of me and it is unreal! Absolutely amazing and stunning. I love this so much. So talented
Art Never Dies Tattoo and Gallery deserves 5 stars. Getting a tattoo, to me, is a very big decision and choosing to place something permanent on your body deserves thought, consideration and deserves the best work. Jose Camarillo at Art Never Dies only does the very best work. Every tattoo that Jose has helped me design and tattooed on me is a work of art; the same can be said about every other tattoo that I have seen on Art Never Dies official Insta page (@artneverdiesofficial @josecamarillotattoos).Additionally, not only is his work excellent, Jose is very easy to speak to and really works with you to ensure that you are getting what you want. Jose, truly is an artist at heart that is also excellent at tattooing. The various tattoos I have brought him and idea and his product (through his design) always ends up a lot better than I ever imagined. As such, for my next couple of tattoos, I have given him a concept and creative freedom because I know that whatever he comes up with is going to be excellent.I highly recommend Jose Camarillo at Art Never Dies. I am extremely satisfied and can almost guarantee that whoever is reading this and decides to make an appointment with Jose will also be extremely satisfied.Visit his insta and take a look at his work; it is truly amazing.
Jose’ is an extremely talented artist. He has done several Tattoos for me and my entire family and I will not go anywhere else. Everyone in the shop does good clean work and are just good people in general. Highly recommended!!!!
I just got my very first tattoo done today, here. It was a great experience. I was a little nervous and was very picky on how I wanted it but Sang (who tatted me) was very patient with me and took the time to do it exactly how I wanted it. After I went to go show my whole family. They absolutely loved it and now my sister wants the same matching tatt as me. All of the artist are pretty cool and down to earth. Good customer service too! 👍👍
Art Never Dies is a great shop with some awesome artists! I have spent a decent amount of time in this shop working with Jose, and it is always a good time. I have seen these guys put out some serious pieces. Definitely worth checking them out. My #1 shop forsure!
Just got another tattoo from Jose. He is incredibly talented and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. I couldnt ask for a better experience. Im so happy with the way this piece turned out. Thank you Jose!
A friend of mine knows Mimi and highly recommended her, and I was so glad she did! I had been wanting to cover up a tattoo I got on my foot when I was 19 with the Eye of Horus and was really worried how that would work out. Turns out Mimi has a lot of experience with cover ups (including doing at least one on herself!) and it turned out way beyond what I had hoped. Ive had my tattoo for 5 months now and love it more each day. Will definitely be going here again.
Got my forearm tattood here by Mimi and Im absolutely on love with it. Its perfect. I wanted it to look just like John Coopers Forgiven tattoo and she absolutely nailed it. Linework, shading and everything is absolutely perfect. She let my friends sit and watch me get the tat and treated us like family. It was awesome. Its my favorite tattoo. If anyone wants a good tattoo, go here. I will be coming here for all my future tattoos.
Jose is the man. He tatted thus years ago for me and the color has withstood the test of time. I gave him a general idea and he took it to the next level. I trust this guy.
I felt uncomfortable when the owner of Art Never Dies “Jose” would purposely use the door furthest to his tattoo station to look into the window that I was being tattooed in and stare/ laugh. He was very unprofessional and immature by exaggerating his laughter towards me and my artist each time he walked by the window of the room I was being tattoo in.
I stopped by and the door was locked with nobody in sight even though they had a sign out. I called and left a voicemail to set up a consolation, I received a text back and scheduled a date to do the consolation. On the day scheduled I texted the number asking for a time and never heard back, I left another voicemail to the business and still havent heard back - ghosted.
Couldnt say enough about this place. True artists and highly skilled at the art of tattooing. As a bonus you get a view of Lake Washington while you get your new pieces done.
I got my brows microbladed by Mimi. I was scared at first because my skin is dark but Mimi did a great job. I highly recommend her!
This is my first time to do tattoo ,at the first i feel a little bit nervous ,but they played relaxing music to makes me feel good !everyone are very friendly !next time I will do unicorn in here
Amazingly talented artists!! They treat their customers like family!! Jose Camarillo the best :-)
