At Mark of Cain Tattoo, we are very proud of the way we work and invite everyone to come and see us in action. We believe that through communication and cooperation - not back stabbing and competition - all tattoo artists can and should work together to elevate this art form to a level it has enjoyed in many other societies and civilizations, but never in this one.
Working contrary to the "industry standard", all of Charles Cain's tattoo work is custom freehand. No flash or stenciling is used, or even available for customer perusal. With this method, the artistry and individuality of tattooing is emphasized and the tattoo the client wants (instead of a close approximation) is provided.
At Mark of Cain Tattoos, we endeavor to provide clients with the highest possible level of professional tattooing and constantly evolve the techniques and aftercare as new information becomes available. Plus, we have every intention of staying on the cuttng edge of tattooing by maintaining a constant vigilance over changes and new information.
