James Hiber, a proud Lakeland, Florida native, grew up with a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of the ocean and spent much of his youth surfing and fishing along Florida’s coastlines. These early passions instilled in him a profound respect for creativity, perseverance, and the balance between freedom and discipline. James’s artistic journey began as a personal exploration, but it wasn’t until he received his first tattoos that he discovered a true calling. The experience sparked a lifelong dedication to tattooing as both a craft and a way to connect with others.

As a father of five, James is committed to setting an example for his children by showing them the value of hard work, resilience, and pursuing their dreams. His transition into tattooing was driven by this sense of purpose and a determination to provide a better future for his family. Every step of his journey has been marked by unwavering dedication and a passion for creating meaningful art that leaves a lasting impression.

For James, tattooing is far more than a profession; it’s a deeply personal art form rooted in trust, connection, and storytelling. He believes each tattoo is an opportunity to help clients express their inner beauty, commemorate special moments, or honor their individuality. James takes pride in collaborating closely with clients to create unique, permanent designs that resonate on a personal level. Whether it’s a bold statement piece or a subtle, intricate design, James’s work is a reflection of his commitment to craftsmanship and his genuine desire to make each tattoo a lasting memory.
