Jon Paulakis

Hey Everyone! I am Jon and I'm originally from Central Washington, and my passion for the tattoo industry has spanned over 8 years, with roots that trace back to my grade school days. I began my journey in Big Spring, Texas, where I cultivated my skills before becoming the proud owner of "Sci-Fi Tattoo Studio" in Moscow, Idaho, prior to joining Pen and Oak. Within the vast realm of tattoo styles, I have found a particular affinity for neo-traditional and blackwork, allowing me to blend traditional elements with contemporary twists.

Tattooing is not merely a job for me; it is a lifelong passion that continues to fuel my growth as an artist. Each tattoo I create is a chance to bring my clients' visions to life, translating their ideas into stunning pieces of art that reflect their unique stories. I approach every project with care and dedication, striving to capture the essence of their concepts and create visually captivating tattoos.

Beyond my artistic skills, I prioritize creating exceptional experiences for my clients. I believe in fostering a welcoming and comfortable environment where they can feel at ease throughout the tattooing process. It is my goal to leave a lasting positive impression, ensuring that not only do they leave with remarkable tattoos, but also with cherished memories of their time in my chair.

With my artistic journey taking me from Central Washington to different parts of the country, my dedication to my craft and love for tattooing continue to shape my path. Each new project represents an opportunity for me to express my creativity, forge connections with clients, and contribute to the diverse tapestry of the tattooing community. I am excited for the artistic adventures that lie ahead and the stories waiting to be told through the art of tattooing.
