Brian Watts
A creative soul since childhood, Brian has always desired a career that would allow him to express himself through art. After serving 20 years in the Air Force and relocating to Pennsylvania, Brian was offered a tattoo apprenticeship at Mermaid’s Mark in 2024. A self-proclaimed nerdy 80s kid and Dungeons and Dragons enthusiast, he enjoys illustrative designs that include everything from video games, science fiction and fantasy, to horror themes. He is dedicated to honing his skills as an apprentice and ultimately working with clients to make their tattoo dreams a reality.
