John has been one of the greatest people to enter my life and definitely the tattoo life. Started 8 years ago with a traditional Japanese wave sleeve tattoo and now have most of my upper torso done all by John. Great at design and custom artwork and also working with what I was looking for. Each piece gave him some idea of what I wanted and came back with an original art piece more than I could have hoped for. Not only is he a great artist but also is a great human being. Wonderful conversation, life advice and a...

I met John Biswell after having had various other artists do my work. After being tattooed by John I never went to another artist again. John is kind, consistent, talented, and fair. His work is beautiful and always feels like 'self-improvement' and the experience is akin to a meditative healing experience - despite getting a literal wound. John is an excellent human being, father, husband, and friend. Highly recommend browsing his vast portfolio, reading other testimonials, and doing yourself a solid by booking with John. There are many places to get a tattoo, but only one where it's Made Rite.

John Biswell at Made-Rite Tattoo is INCREDIBLE! He is welcoming and accommodating and his work is outstanding! Big, bold, beautiful... and looks as good five or even ten years later as it did a month after you got it. I HIGHLY recommend! Tip: If he offers a suggestion, take it. Beware: All the stares and compliments you will get. A few of his tattoos are included. The back is a cover-up.
