Kevin Smith

"Tattooing is a big commitment, and we believe you deserve a studio that respects that."

My name is Kevin, and I’ve been tattooing since 2004. After years of working across the Charlotte area, I set out to create something different: Revenant. I wanted to build a space where artists could truly hone their craft and, more importantly, a place designed entirely around the client experience.

We know that walking into a tattoo shop can be intimidating. At Revenant, there is no "too cool for school" attitude and no one is just a dollar sign. We understand the weight of the commitment you’re making. That’s why we cater to your needs every step of the way, ensuring you feel comfortable and heard.

With over two decades of experience, I specialize in American Traditional, Japanese Traditional, Black & Gray Realism, and Neo-Traditional styles. Whether it’s your first tattoo or your fiftieth, I’m dedicated to providing art that stands the test of time.

Emelia Modjeski

"Respecting the history of the craft, one tattoo at a time."

I’m Emelia, and I’ve been tattooing since 2022. From the beginning, I have held a deep appreciation for the history and technical skill that defines this art form—a level of respect I strive to bring to every piece I create.

While I am currently focused on the timeless silhouettes of American and Japanese Traditional designs, I also have a passion for ornamental and tribal work. I am always eager to take on large-scale projects and love the challenge of flowing art across the body.

I love meeting new clients and collaborating on fresh concepts. If you have an idea for your next tattoo, I’d love to hear it! Let’s work together to create something you’ll be proud to wear.

Michellen Spires

I’m Michellen, and I’ve always had an affinity for the darker side of art. My work lives in the space where creepy meets gothic, but I also love exploring the softer intersections of illustrative and botanical themes.

I am best known for my focus on delicate, fine-line details, but I never shy away from bold lines and vibrant color when a design calls for it. Whether you are looking for something hauntingly beautiful or a custom botanical piece, I pride myself on capturing the exact mood you’re looking for.

I look forward to hearing your ideas! Feel free to DM me on Instagram or fill out my booking form to get started.

Sylina Ruiz

I’m Sylina, a tattoo artist with a deep-rooted love for body art. To me, tattoos are the ultimate form of self-expression, and there is nothing I enjoy more than helping my clients bring their personal visions to life through custom designs.

I take pride in being a well-rounded artist and choose not to limit myself to just one specific style. Whether you are looking for something delicate, bold, or completely unique, I love the challenge of "doing it all." My goal is to ensure every piece I create is perfectly tailored to the person wearing it.

Let’s collaborate on a design that is uniquely yours!

Ella Frederick

Hi, I’m Ella! I’m a tattoo artist with a passion for the bold and the bright. I specialize in Vibrant Traditional and Neo-Traditional styles, and nothing makes me happier than tattooing tasty foods, funky animals, or colorful flowers.

Whether you want to grab a piece from my custom flash gallery or collaborate on a unique design from scratch, I’m here to make it happen. I love creating a fun, relaxed environment for my clients—I’m always down for a good movie or TV show chat while we work!

When I’m not in the studio, you can find me outdoors scouting for bones and bugs to pin, or at home baking vegan treats and getting lost in a movie. If you’re ready for a fun tattoo experience and some great conversation, feel free to DM me or send me an email to get started.

Josh Brownell

Hi everyone, my name is Josh! My work is heavily inspired by the roots of Traditional tattooing. While I love the bold, timeless look of the classics, I enjoy pushing beyond the standard aesthetic by incorporating a wider range of vibrant colors and smooth blends.

To me, tattooing is about building a collection you’re proud of. I love hearing your fun, creative ideas and figuring out how we can make them pop.

When I’m not in the studio, you’ll find me spending time with my wife and our two dogs. I look forward to meeting you and adding a new piece to your collection!

Savannah

Hi, I’m Savannah! As a professional tattoo artist, I am dedicated to designing unique pieces that truly reflect your personality and your story. I specialize in a variety of styles, including Blackwork, American Traditional, Illustrative, Fine Line, and custom Script.

I’m a traveler at heart, and my love for exploring has taken my tattooing to many different places. When I’m not in the studio, you’ll likely find me outdoors hiking, catching live music, or exploring the city. This passion for discovery keeps my perspective fresh and my creativity flowing.

Whether you’re coming in for your very first tattoo or adding a new piece to a growing collection, I strive to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment for every client. I look forward to hearing your ideas and turning them into a stunning piece of wearable art.
