Our tattoo shop is by appointment only, with some set aside “walk-in” days (in quotes because we still need to have a loose schedule which requires communication with clients prior to the day).

To make an appointment with a tattoo artist, contact the tattoo artist you want to work with directly. You can browse each tattoo artist’s portfolio and their scheduling info on their tattoo artist page. We have experienced tattoo artists and also artists who are newer to the industry at the tattoo shop. Our tattoo artists do a variety of tattoo styles and they have many different artistic backgrounds. Check out their info so you can select a tattoo artist who can best complement your tattoo idea.

Our artists have a variety of styles, talents and artistic backgrounds. Please check out our portfolios and select an artist whose work complements the tattoo you are looking to get. Please call the shop at 503-236-7878 to discuss your tattoo a bit more and we can help steer you toward the right artist for the project. We have a $100 minimum. Tattoos under 3 hours are priced by the piece and are subject to a number of factors including size, detail, placement on the body, and style. Rates for larger pieces start at $160/hour. A non-refundable deposit is required to book an appointment. We take walk ins every day! Many tattoos do not need a consultation before the appointment. For larger custom pieces however, a consultation with your artist is a good way to start. Consultations are scheduled, in-person meetings where you discuss your tattoo idea, review reference materials, placement on the body, estimates, etc. It’s also a good way to meet the tattooist and make sure that they will be the right fit for you to work with. Consultations generally take between 15-30 minutes and we do not charge for this service. For your consultation, please bring PRINT OUTS (no pictures on your cell phone if possible) of any visual references or images you are attracted to that will help explain your vision for the piece. A little homework up front on your part really helps us draw the tattoo of your dreams! Your artist will collect a non-refundable, non-transferable deposit from you to reserve your tattoo appointment and drawing time. The deposit gets applied to the cost of the tattoo at the final sitting. The deposit will be forfeited if you decide not to get tattooed, do not show up for your appointment, have excessive last minute reschedules, or if you change your idea mid-process, requiring new artwork and additional drawing time. Should you need to reschedule, we ask 48 hours notice to keep your deposit and have it follow you to your new appointment time.

Aardvark Tattoo Company is an all custom tattoo shop. Every piece we do is drawn up one of a kind for the client. We specialize in portraits, photo-realism, new school, feminine tattoos, cover ups, lettering, and creating original artwork for our clients. Too often in the tattoo industry the client's desires are overshadowed by the ego of their artist. The tattoo industry is also plagued by discrimination, and that can impact the quality of the piece as well as the experience. This can be an intimidating prospect when it comes to something you’ll wear for a lifetime. We want to offer you something different. It is our goal to bring your ideas and sensibilities to the surface, even if they aren't the same as ours. We strive to create an environment where all of our customers can feel safe and confident that their ideas will be heard and brought to life with respect and care. Let us create something unique with you, for you. After all, isn't that the whole idea behind custom tattooing?

The Sea Tramp Tattoo Company continues to remain as Oregon’s longest running tattoo shop for over 30 years. It was originally opened by Bert Grimm (1900-1985), a legend of American tattooing, whose hand-painted flash sheets still decorate the walls of Sea Tramp. World famous Bert Grimm owned numerous shops around the nation, starting with his own St. Louis, MD shop in 1916. At one time, Bert toured with THE Buffalo Bill Wild West Show and is said to have tattooed legendary figures such as Bonnie and Clyde, and Pretty Boy Floyd. Bert really gained notoriety with ‘Bert Grimms World Famous Tattoo’ shop on the infamous Pike in Long Beach, California during the 1950’s. Renowned tattoo artist Bob Shaw purchased Bert’s shop on the Pike in the late 1960’s, keeping “Bert Grimm’s” for the shop name as it went on to be the longest continually running shop in America for years afterward. Bert opened his last shop here in Portland, Oregon, but upon falling ill in 1977, brought help up from Long Beach: legendary Pike tattooers Dave Orlowski and Don Deaton (current owner to this day). Soon thereafter, Portland’s Bert Grimm shop moved into ‘Miss Dee’s Portland Tattoo’ shop across the street from the original at NW 6th and Davis, where they remained until a mysterious fire in 1989 forced them to reopen across the river on SE Grand Ave. This remained the location until the most recent move to SE Stark st. in 2015. Supposedly ready for retirement, Bert sold his operation to Don and Dave in 1980 under the agreement that they could retain the ‘Bert Grimm’ name. At the time of purchase, Bert changed his mind, forcing them to come up with a new shop name on the spot. At that moment, the Sea Tramp name was born, based on Don Deaton’s favorite drawings of a seafaring temptress. Deaton’s Sea Tramp gal and other original artwork are still displayed throughout the tattoo shop, as well as other hand-painted flash from Sea Tramp tattooists past and present. After almost 40 years in the industry, Don still tattoos by special appointment. And, in the classic Pike style of tattoo shops, Sea Tramp Tattoo continues to be open 363 days of the year, accepting walk-ins until 12am.
