WES

Realism & Pop Culture Tattoo Artist in Hamilton

​

Wesley Eagle is originally from Hamilton, Ontario, and very much gives artist artist. He studied Visual and Creative Arts at Sheridan College, which means he has both the technical foundation and the creative brain rot to back up his work.

​

Wesley was inspired to become a tattoo artist by his twin brother, who is also a tattoo artist — because apparently talent runs aggressively in that family. He brings that same intensity into his own practice, approaching tattooing with curiosity, ambition, and a genuine love for design.

​

His work spans portraits, realism, surrealism, neo-traditional tattooing, and pretty much anything involving animals, nature, or pop culture. Cartoons, horror, video games, movies, TV — if it lives in your brain, Wesley can probably tattoo it. He also loves creating original designs and thrives when given creative freedom.

​

Around the studio, Wesley is affectionately known as the Karen Whisperer. He has an uncanny ability to turn the most complicated clients into his best friends. He’s empathetic, patient, and kind — while also being the sassiest queen alive. If you’re looking for an iconic read from a man who makes maximalism look effortless, don’t worry. He’s got you.

​

Outside the studio, Wesley collects an alarming number of incredible things and is deeply invested in home decor. His house is genuinely stunning, filled with bold murals, dramatic tiles, statement flooring, and bathrooms that deserve their own Pinterest boards. Minimalism fears him. He would probably love to show you what his current project is - but be warned - it's extra af.
