Shop Owner - Scott Sawyer

My name's Scott, I grew up in the capital district, lived here all my life. Growing up i was always drawing and doodling around on everything i could touch. So as I grew up, I knew tattooing was in the works. So as I started my career knew there would be a bunch of great artists to contend with. So if I wanted to do a portrait, I'd look up Tom Renshaw. If its color, i look at how Tin Tin works. I try to steal from the best. Stealing from the best, which everyone doesif they're smart, and admitting it is real class. I really like to do everything. If someone walks in my shop and wants a tattoo by me, I do my absolute best to make their art shine. I'm currently in art school to further my own art as well as my clients. We're about being the best and striving everyday to meet your needs and obtaining our goals...makin you "Addicted to Ink."



Ian MacIntyre

My name is Ian, I was born in Albany and grew up here. I've been drawing since I can remember. I've always been into all kinds of art. My favorite kind of art is anything creative and twisted. I love tattooing, I love the fact that I can place a piece of my imagination on somebody's body and they'll have it for the rest of their life. As an artist I constantly try to grow, learn and get better, thats all any of us can really do. My favorite things to tattoo are those that are sick and twisted: skulls, demons, erotic scenes, etc. So for all you sick and twisted people, come feed your addiction at... ADDICTED TO INK!!!
