Testimonials: Cody Lintz said: November 21st, 2014 12:40 pm Bob is the State of the Art tattooist! I recommend him to everyone! A+++++++ Bianca said: November 28th, 2013 3:13 pm No complaints! Great environment and atmosphere! Bob was very professional. You can tell he knows what he's doing. It was my first time getting a tattoo, so he helped me through it by talking me through what he was doing, since the tattoo was on my back. He also made sure I knew that I could call if I had any questions. I would definitely go back if I wanted to get another tattoo! Dan said: January 25th, 2013 6:26 am Bob is the best when it comes to tattoos! Enough said... David said: October 18th, 2012 3:06 pm I got the word "unless" tattooed onto my lower left shoulder by Bob yesterday, and he did an absolutely beautiful job. The environment is clean and professional yet comfortable and laid-back. The staff is personable and extremely nice to everyone, too. The man provides an excellent tattooing service that is second-to-none at an affordable price. Many places will stick you with a decent tattoo at an expensive price saying that price is a tradeoff for quality and service, but I got all three at Skyn Art. If you want the best tatto with the best service and best price, take it from a previous customer and get your tatto done by Bob. Plus, they are eco- friendly! Can't complain about that. Rachel said: May 16th, 2012 11:29 am I had a tattoo done by Bob back in January and was blown away by the work he did. I had some lyrics tattooed on my ribs and I swear it did not hurt at all thanks to Bob!! It has been a few months since I had it done and it healed perfectly and the ink is still nice and dark. Bob and Pam are both very vibrant people and easy to talk to. They both made me feel extremely welcomed when I first walked into their shop. I'm definitely going to continue to go to Skyn Art for all my future work. Thank you Bob and Pam! Cassady Palmer said: May 3rd, 2012 7:50 pm My friend and I just got our first tattoos at Skyn Art yesterday! Bob did an awesome job, and I've already gotten so many compliments (and it's not even red at all). He makes sure you know what to expect upfront, and the atmosphere is so relaxing throughout. The biggest problem I had was wanting to tap my foot and move with the music! I'd recommend Bob to anybody looking at getting a tattoo in Bloomington. Jesse said: March 3rd, 2012 12:10 am I just got back to Indianapolis. I drove 2 hours to get tattooed by Bob! The Quality was AMAZING! Heck, the price was so good I forgot to tip him! Don't worry though I'm coming back again - I'll just have to tip double :P I've gotten tattoos from a couple of places in Bloomington and Indy and this place blows these other shops away! Bob is cool and laid back and Pam kept me laughing the whole time! 5 STARS! Jacs said: January 10th, 2012 12:25 pm I was in Skyn art studios in March before a Deployment to Afghanistan!! From the Atmosphere to the quality of work The Chest piece I received was by far the best, most intricate and precise tattoo I have among my 30+ tattoos. I have returned from overseas and am in the process of having Bob work on future pieces! I couldnt be more pleased with the bitchin art work that Bob and Pam are capable of!! josh said: December 1st, 2011 10:19 pm I got my first tat done by bob over three years ago and it has survived everything that the Air Force can throw at it, still looks brand new. He is the only person I trust touching my body with a needle and he has since given me two more tats a heart ripping threw my chest very detailed and I couldn't be more pleased, I went in to him today and got another one with my grandfathers tomb and all hand drawn and was done in under a hour. I drive all the way from southern Georgia to get inked up by Bob and I will for years to come Rebecca said: October 15th, 2011 9:24 pm Bob did a tattoo i wanted on my bicep on such short notice, i wanted it done before a certain event and he opened up early for me and i couldnt appreciate that anymore. His work was fabulous and the price is right and so is the company! Both his wife and him are awesome people. The atmosphere that comes out of that shop is homey and inviting. His talent far exceeds anyone else in bloomington and hes a lot nicer! I wont go anywhere else now. brenda neely said: October 11th, 2011 9:43 am bob did a tattoo on my waist and part of my side.. he did an amazing job on it. he has the right prices and will do a fantastic job on your tats. im looking forward to getting more tattoos done by him. Magda said: September 16th, 2011 8:36 pm Before going to Skyn Art, I first tried to go to another tattoo shop in Bloomington. I was entirely disappointed with their lack of interest and utter indifference in/toward me. Next I decided to drive out to Skyn Art. You will not be disappointed by the small drive. Bob did an amazing job on my tattoo! He is extremely nice and was very helpful in selecting a design. I would recommend his shop to anyone interested in a tattoo. cheryl said: September 10th, 2011 9:36 pm ........so I checked your head tats. You are crazy lady! Very cool! And why is my anchor tattoo STILL not in your portfolio here????? You do nice work Bob. When I come back I'd like a ship wreck / treasure chest on the bottome of the ocean floor........or a really cool tiger. Jason said: August 23rd, 2011 2:45 pm Bob did a piece on my left arm of the American Flag with the U.S. Navy Flag and a Senior Chief anchor in the middle. Awesome piece, took two sessions, thank god we split them up too. If you are looking for a tattoo and don't go to Bob, shame on you!! Pam said: June 8th, 2011 7:55 am I have several hours of body art but last week I got a fun HEAD tattoo. It's small, just above my ear, and as with all my art I can cover it up or show it off. I love it, didn't hurt (ok, it hurt a little, but nothing I can't handle!) I can't wait to get the other side done! Jacquie said: April 17th, 2011 9:46 pm I was just there this past weekend visiting some friends we went in to skyn art and we were sold the minute we talked to Bob. he did an amazing job on my tattoo he. i would highly recommend going to get a tattoo from him if you are in the bloomington area his prices are very reasonable and he does a fantastic job!! Chris said: March 29th, 2011 3:00 pm Just got more ink added to my on going SKIN ART! As always the staff was friendly and Bob was great! He transformed my ideas on paper into ink artwork on my body. Thanks Bob for another great piece! Kyle Pearson said: March 2nd, 2011 3:10 pm I just moved back from New York and was looking for an artist to continue my body of work and Bob & Pam was who I found. Bob has started my left sleeve and will be doing the rest of art as long as I am in Inidiana. If your looking for a very nice tattoo and great people come to skyn art and fall in love! Kim said: November 22nd, 2010 4:40 pm awesome job on all the work you've done for me! it's always fun even when i'm hurting from two hours under a needle :) Austin said: November 11th, 2010 6:51 pm This place is fantastic. great price and even better work, just got my first professional tatt here today. Anyone who wants to get a great tatt and not go broke, this is your place. WAYNE WHITE said: October 13th, 2010 10:47 pm Bob is the best at tattoo's. 2 weeks ago, my wife and I and two best friends traveled from Anderson to get a tattoo. It was my wife and I's first time getting one. He is so lite handed and does great work. We will never go anywhere else to get one. THANKS BOB AND PAM! YOU GUY'S ARE GREAT.

Still wish we had made Dave flinch, maybe next time. Taylor D. Eads said: April 11th, 2010 12:25 am I LOVE YOU BOB Desiree said: April 8th, 2010 10:25 pm bob did a great job on my poker hand tattoo! i love it, it was exactly how i pictured it :) i will be in soon for my next tattoo :) and im recommending him to all my friends Taylor D. Eads said: February 12th, 2010 9:37 am Once again Bob has done an amazing job and never ceases to amaze me. Hes added the third tattoo now, and its absolutly beautiful. I LOVE SKYN ART!!! -I LOVE YOU BOB & PAM- love, taylor Stacy said: February 1st, 2010 9:25 am I stopped by Skyn Art to discuss getting my first tattoo. Bob answered all of my questions, gave me a base quote without even seeing the design I wanted, going only on my description. He had drawn up my design within a few hours of receiving it and had it ready for me to review. I can't believe how comfortable the staff made me feel. They knew I was nervous so they talked with me through the entire process (and Bob sang and whistled for me). All can say is..."Mr. Whistler" is THE BEST! Great tattoo, clean shop, friendly staff, well worth going a few minutes further for a fabulous experience! Kayla said: January 26th, 2010 10:46 am im 16 and got my tattoo from bob for my birthday. my mom dies when i was thirteen and i got a weeping willow tree and a flower and i love my tattoo. he did a wonderful job and that's where i will be going to get all my other ones :) Doug May said: January 13th, 2010 9:23 pm i went in to skyn art tattoo shop with a messed up home made tatto of a cross i dident think it could be fixed, but Bob looked at it and set up an appointment for me to come in and have it fixxed my tattoo went from a peice of crap to a work of art i would highly recomend Skyn art tattoos cause i know ill be back to see Bob very soon for more Tattoos Danielle said: January 5th, 2010 10:47 am In March I had a tattoo done to remember my baby that I miscarried. Bob did an awesome job. The shop was nice and he took his time to make sure the design was exactly what I wanted before starting on my tattoo. I would highly recommend Skyn Art. Thank you Bob for my awesome tattoo. Sandy Mood said: December 29th, 2009 9:36 am I got my eyeliner done from Bob over 10 years ago, then he stopped doing it for a while, My eyeliner looks as good today, as it did when he did it back then!! I am very pleased. I have had friends that went to makeup artist and their eyeliner was gone in 2 years. Bob is the Best. Laura B. said: December 8th, 2009 8:04 pm Great Place to get ink.. I highly Recommend because It was really clean, the staff was outstanding, and most of all The Artist Bob done a great job!!! Kudos to SkynArt! Nicki said: October 21st, 2009 4:33 pm Well, this was my first tatoo and it was eyeliner!!!! How scary is that??? However, Bob is so good at what he does, patient at answering questions, and just being nice, that I made it through without a hitch. It didn't hurt like I anticipated and I know through the years I'm going to be SO GLAD I did it!!!! No more waking up in the morning looking like a scary monster!! Thank you Bob. (the scarier monster who wakes up next to me thanks you too) Derrick said: October 19th, 2009 9:47 pm I recently got my first tattoo at Skyn Art. With so many choices, I had trouble deciding where to go, but after reading a lot of reviews I decided to give Skyn Art a shot. I am very satisfied with my decision. The shop is very clean, the music is great, and my tattoo is perfect. Bob does great work. If you want a tattoo that is HIGH QUALITY and AFFORDABLE, I strongly recommend Skyn Art. Pam said: October 6th, 2009 4:13 pm I recently had permanent eyeliner tattooed on my eyes and I love it!!!! Bob did a great job and it was virtually painless! I am of the "older" gerneration and had to have glasses on to apply eyeliner. Now it is just THERE. plus I don't tear the delicate tissuse around my eyes. Thank you Bob for an excellent job . I absolutely love it and must say that I look good, even in the morning. Can you do something about my nose? Just kidding. Thank you with all my heart. Pam. Taylor D. Eads said: September 5th, 2009 2:52 am Bob is the only person I will ever let touch my body with a needle and ink. He has done both of my tattoos. I have two swallow birds on my left hip and a cross on my upper back and they are absolutely beautiful. You can go to most shops and their tattooing stations are all out in the open, you have no privacy! But at Skyn Art, the rooms are private so you dont have to worry about showing the world what you got. Bob makes you feel like your at home, an easy going man who takes away any of your fears. His assistant is absolutely hilarious, she makes your session even more enjoyable. I am forever dedicated to Skyn Art. -Taylor D. Eads Cheryl said: August 18th, 2009 12:54 pm I came to Bloomington Indiana from Rochester New York to have Bob tattoo an anchor on my hip. Not just any anchor.......No, this was in honor of my grandson and was to be placed among other existing aquatic tattoos on my hip. I came with pictures of anchors in hand and talked with Bob about features of each one that I liked and how we could combine them. He masterfully incorporated every aspect into one beautiful anchor and expertly placed it like it belonged there on my hip with my other sea life. (why did I not see this in your portfolio????) I will go back to visit Bob for any of my future ink. Skynart is a great shop! Libby said: August 18th, 2009 8:18 am I am a nurse and have been thinking of getting tatooed eyeliner, I visited Bobs shop on several friends recommendation was very impressed with cleanliness and Bobs willingness to explain to me the sterilization procesess. I will definately be back. Chris Manning said: August 17th, 2009 1:45 pm Bob had already tattooed a shark on both of my arms. Then I drew my own tribal hammerhead to cover my whole back. Man, did he make my design come to life! I knew he was good but I am amazed at the quailityof his talent. His whislting while he works shows how much he enjoys what he does and is a compliment to his jolly demeaner. Thanks Bob, I will be back. Tracy said: August 17th, 2009 12:44 pm Bob gave me my first tattoo. I was a little nervous about it before hand but once I met Bob and saw how calm he was I was able to relax a little. I mean, this guy whistles while he works---couldn't get any more calm than that. I have a BEAUTIFUL butterfly tattoo and have gotten tons of compliments on it. He did the butterfly exactly the way I wanted it! If I decide to do another tattoo, Bob's the man, for sure. P.J. Manning said: August 17th, 2009 11:34 am Bob has tattooed a whole aquarium on my back, I have 28 hours under the needle. Every single minute has been a pleasure and enjoyable. The music is great , the shop clean and the atmosphere fun. Bob always makes everyone feel at ease and is very helpful choosing designs and colors. I will keep going there until I run out of skin to ink! Ron said: August 13th, 2009 3:11 pm I have had Bob give me 4 tattoos so far and love them all. He does a great job and is an excellent person. Skyn Art always has great music playing and is a very comfortable place to be in. If I get anymore tats then Skyn Art will be doing them. Kevin said: August 7th, 2009 12:37 am Skyn Art was the third tattoo shop I've visited to have work done. Honestly, I didn't leave either of the last two places feeling unhappy with the quality of the work. And it goes without saying that Skyn Art is no different. The work they do is great. But after discovering that there exists a tattoo shop that's not only good at giving tattoos, but is also free of the usual group of pretentious pricks loitering every square inch of the building (see: Skinquake, Icon, and probably many more out there), I'm happy to say I know where I'll be getting any future work done. And if that wasn't enough, it's also got great music playing nonstop in a very pleasant atmosphere. Drop by and see. You'll be glad you did.
