Robert Kinzel — born in New York, raised on the boardwalks of Central Jersey. I’ve been around tattooing since 2000, sweeping floors, mopping stations, and earning my place the old-school way. Tattooing professionally since 2005.

 

I hold a degree in Printmaking from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, bringing fine art foundation into every piece I create. Spent 8 years tattooing in Brooklyn, sharpening my craft in one of the toughest scenes in the game. Then 13 years in Virginia — learning the business, evolving my style, and owning a shop for the last 3 of those years.

 

Now I’m back where it started — Monmouth County. Back to my roots. Back to the salt air. Grateful to be home and tattooing at the Jersey Shore.
