A Little About Us…

David Meek – Owner

David has been tattooing since 2007 in Tucson Arizona. He started his apprenticeship in 2005 at The Tattoo Shop in Tucson and has worked with some amazing tattooers all over the country over the last 18 years. He is one of the most popular tattoo artists in Tucson and books a few weeks to months in advance.

David specializes in realistic large and small scale Black and Grey tattoos, portrait work, American Traditional, and his own blend of the two he calls “Sonoran Realism”

Known for his love of Walt Disney history and the creation of the entertainment empire, you can seriously ask him something about Walt and he will blow you away with the obscure things he knows!

David prices each tattoo based the size, location, design and the complexity of the piece. Tattoo pricing starts as low as $150.


Justin Winkler – Tattoo Apprentice

Justin moved from Florida to Tucson in 2003 after falling in love with the dry heat and monsoons of the Sonoran Desert. He graduated with a degree in Graphic Design in 2013 and has since been working in the field of design and drawing while rocking out to metal music and the occasional gangster rap/folk tunes. 

A self proclaimed desert rat, Justin and his dog Duke spend their time hiking, backpacking, rock climbing and fishing. When he’s not in Tucson enjoying the outdoors, he’s probably in Florida getting back to his deeply Caucasian roots….. getting a sunburn.

Fascinated with the history and foundation of tattooing, Justin fought his way in the door at Art and Sol Tattoo with his impeccable floor sweeping abilities, landing himself an apprenticeship with David in 2022.

Outside of tattooing, Ashley also enjoys creating unique paintings ranging from surrealist to more realistic or illustrative works of art. Often times mixing media and genres to create her own style which offer a sense of catharsis. She also has a love for crystals and anything magical and all sorts of arts and crafts.

As an Arizona native, Terry likes to take long rides exploring the roads on his motorcycle. You can also find him hitting up the local comic book store to stock up on the latest Magic cards and comics.

Johnna Meek – Director of Heart

Johnna has been working behind the scenes of the tattoo industry for nearly 16 years supporting David’s passion for traveling, shenanigans and producing exceptional tattoos.

Opening Art and Sol Tattoo Gallery with her husband has been one of her proudest ventures as it has allowed her to finally work face to face with local artists, customers and tattooers alike.

A registered yoga instructor at 500 hours, when Johnna isn’t sitting behind our front desk juggling hats or wandering about the exceptionally clean studio without shoes, you can find her teaching yoga or attending a public class at YogaOasis.

Johnna and David also own TraXide Taproom on historic 4th Ave in Tucson Arizona. A local focused taproom serving local Tucson craft beer.


All of our artists take tremendous pride in the work they create for not only our Tucson clients but also those that travel in to see them.
