MEET KATE
REALIST TATTOO ARTIST
& OIL PAINTER ON VANCOUVER ISLAND
Coming from a classical fine art background, I adore portrait work, but I'm just as eager to tattoo wildlife, nature scenes, horror themes, pop culture material, the witchy and the spooky, the beautiful and the serene. The fun for me is making your crazy request reality. You want your friend's face on your butt? Count me in. Your friend's butt on your face? I'm good at taking money and not asking quesitons. Whether you want a design that makes you laugh, a personal and meaningful piece, something purely artistic, or if you're not entirely sure, but you know you want a change on the outside of your body to reflect a change on the inside, I'm your artist.
OFF THE PORCH TATTOOS is located in the village of Cowichan Bay and serves custom realism tattoo clients all over the Island and mainland BC, from Qualicum to Tofino to Victoria. Our passion is to bring our clients' vision into reality using our digital design and classical oil painting backgrounds in a studio space that is fun and welcoming to everyone. We love what we do, and our clients can tell.

Meet the Team
There are three artists at Off the Porch Tattoos, all endeavoring to provide the best realism tattoos on Vancouver Island. Reach out to any or all of us. We want you to find the best fit for your project.
Kate Stone
Kate has been tattooing for ten years, focusing on large-scale black and grey realism and colour realism. Her background as a commission portrait artist and illustrator has equipped her to provide a high level of customization to the design process.
David Gluck
Dave has been tattooing for fifteen years, with a focus on multi-session black and grey realism pieces of every theme you can think of. His oil painting background lends an atmospheric realism to his tattoo work that sets him apart from his peers.
Leah Day
Leah is our hyper-talented apprentice, already taking on small-scale realism projects at competitive prices to build her portfolio. This is a chance to snag a quality tattoo and start a relationship with an emerging tattoo artist (we never forget our early clients!).
