It all begins with an idea. Maybe you have a design in mind or you want me to create you something completely from scratch.

My job is to bring your vision to life.

Great experience. The shop is clean and inviting. The artist is amazing, takes time to make sure the art is just right. This was my 10th or so tattoo, best experience so far.

Convenient location, comfortable and private studio, AMAZING Artist! Truly cares about your project and takes the time to get it right. I’ve been back several times; my tattoos heal beautifully and look just like I envisioned.

Hi, I’m Ryan

I am the owner and sole tattoo artist at Lockwood Tattoo in Austin, TX. With over 13 years of professional experience and a BFA from Columbia College Chicago, I bring both formal art training and tattoo expertise to my work.

Customer satisfaction drives my approach. I collaborate closely with clients to develop their concepts while offering creative guidance when needed. My priority is to give you a tattoo you will love, even if it means adapting my recommendations to match your preferences.

After working in various shops across Chicago and Austin, I opened my private studio in 2019. This intimate setting offers a more comfortable, exclusive experience where clients can discuss their projects without pressure. The space includes amenities like a big-screen TV, your choice of music, and room for guests to join you during your session.

Can’t wait to have you in and bring your vision to life.
