My name is Justin Turkus. I’m a tattoo artist based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Read an overview of my process below. Find more information via the menu above. Thank you for your interest in my work.
I tattoo by appointment only at my private studio, Rabbit Ear.
I collect requests for new appointments about two times per year. During those periods, you can fill out a form on my appointment request page to tell me about your idea. When my books are closed, you can join my email list on my booking page, and I’ll be sure to notify you the next time I’m opening my books.
I’m primarily focused on tattooing my hand-drawn custom script lettering as well as fine line and single needle plants, animals, and other designs in black and grey.
I get more appointment requests than I am able to schedule, so I prioritize my own original designs and I select the projects that I feel are the best fit for me. If I can take on your tattoo, I’ll send you a price quote and a link to my calendar to schedule. You’ll pay a deposit to confirm the appointment.
You can expect to see the design the day before your appointment.
I encourage you to send me a healed picture once your tattoo is healed. If needed, I offer one free touch up within the first year after your appointment.
