Natan Alexander, Shop Owner & Tattoo Artist

HI! I’m N^T^N, a hard working tattoo artist with 16 years experience. I have two shops in the greater Boston area; Lightwave Tattoos and Witch City Ink. At my shops, I employ only the finest artists and professionals in the business. I also produce the Boston Tattoo Convention, now in its 10th year. Tattooing is my passion, not just my profession. As a Tattoo Artist, I do strictly custom work that challenges me and reflects my interests and those of my clients. I love all types of tattooing and my work has an easily recognizable style that features bold lines and strong color. I travel abroad several times a year in Europe and Japan to broaden my knowledge and understanding of tattooing. My goal is to bring this knowledge and commitment to excellence into every tattoo that is done in each of my shops.
