Me too. I'm Gabe from TattooNOW, pleased to meet you.
Helping tattooers leave the longest lasting positive impact possible keeps me up late. SInce the 90's I've done this by helping artists, studio owners, managers, and other professionals to visualize, maximize, and fufill their potential. This means helping with tech, business, and professional development.

This also means connecting collectors with world-class tattooers.
Looking to get tattooed
?? Tampa Bay… We’re Coming for That Crown (Again)! ??
Hey, Forbidden Family — it’s LITOS here.
For over four decades, I’ve been tattooing dreams, telling your stories through ink, and building a home for artists who live and breathe this craft. And now… it’s that time again.
The Best of Tampa Bay Awards are live — and we need YOUR vote to keep our throne polished. ??
We’ve been honored, humbled, and honestly, a little spoiled by your love in past years… but this time, we want to make it unforgettable.
If you’ve ever…
?? Worn one of our tattoos like a badge of honor
?? Told your friends “this is THE place”
?? Or just stopped by for the vibe and Lulu’s adorable face...
…then you’re part of this story. And your vote is the ink we need to finish this masterpiece.
?? VOTE HERE: https://vote.cltampa.com/services/best-tattoo-studio (It takes 30 seconds, and yes — we’re timing you. ?)
Let’s shake up Tampa Bay the way only a family of artists, clients, and dreamers can.
Tag us after you vote — post it, share it, shout it from the rooftops. The more noise, the better. ??
From the bottom of my ink-stained hands,
— LITOS
