James Cramer - Professional Tattoo Artist in West Kelowna

I was born and raised in Timmins Ontario. I’ve been tattooing since 2010. I studied the craft under Frank Iacono in Toronto at YB Normal Studio of Arts. I’m versed in many styles, but my main styles of interest are black and grey realism and geometry/dotwork. My realism isn’t limited to anything, but my common themes are mountains/landscapes, animals (the furrier the better) together with surrealist and geometric elements. Perspective is important to me. I like to experiment with colour on occasion as well.

I've been working in downtown Kelowna for the past 5 years with some great and accomplished artists like Diego Chagall, Louie Page, and Diego Lugo to name a few. I also met and worked with Dan Schlauwitz in the same location. From there he and I decided to open our own place in Westbank, away from the chaotic drama and parking stress of the downtown core. Together we've isolated the many problem areas that existed in our past locations to trim the fat from our processes and policies, in order to give our clients the best work possible along with a healthy environment to enhance their experience. If I’m not at work I’m either skateboarding, snowboarding, riding motorcycles or petting cats.
