Derick began tattooing in Las Vegas back in 1989, starting with a formal apprenticeship at Las Vegas Tattoo Co., the first licensed shop in Nevada. After more than a decade there, he spent time in Tennessee learning country-inspired tattooing and traveled to conventions to expand his craft.

With over three decades of experience, Derick is a versatile artist skilled in every style—from traditional to black & grey, color realism to lettering. No matter the design, his focus is always on clean execution, detail, and giving each client a tattoo they’ll be proud to wear.

Las Vegas has always been home for Derick, and he continues to bring that depth of experience and adaptability to every tattoo he creates.
