Hi! I'm Michael, I opened Black Rose Tattoo & Piercing in 2009. I've been tattooing and piercing since 2001.
I started out drawing when I was a young kid, born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. I came to California when I was 11.
I got an apprenticeship at Fat Cat Tattoo in Fair Oaks California 24 Years ago, under the owner/Artist Chris Aguilar. Now about my Tattooing, I love bright tattoos. I also enjoy Black N’ Grey Tattooing. I do most types of tattooing. I’m known for super clean lines. If I can put it on paper, I can tattoo it. So if you’re looking for that new clean Bright, or Black N’ Grey piece, come see me at Black Rose. Ask for Michael D.

Hey, I’m Jay — a tattoo artist at Black Rose Tattoo, where I’ve been proudly creating custom ink and connecting with clients for the past year. Tattooing, for me, is about more than just the art — it’s about helping people tell their stories and wear their identity with confidence.
My work focuses on blackwork and black and grey, with a love for bold contrast, clean linework, and smooth shading. Whether it’s something deeply personal or just a design you vibe with, I take pride in turning your ideas into something you’ll be proud to wear for life.
Since joining the crew at Black Rose Tattoo, I’ve been growing my craft every day, surrounded by artists who are as passionate about tattoos as I am. I aim to create a chill, professional experience — no ego, no pressure, just solid work and good energy.
I offer half and full day specials at an apprentice rate.
