Tom "T-Bone" Martin has been tattooing since 1993. He has a BFA in Sculpture, from Parsons School of Design NYC. He did his apprenticeship with Bruce Bart, Bruce Kaplan and Geeno Mancuso in Tannersville and Albany NY. Says the Bone: “I was an artist from the very beginning of my life. Had an amazing 4 years at Parsons. Tattooing came a little later. I learned how to tattoo in a "street shop", meaning: you've got to be flexible, versatile and willing to listen to the customer. I'm all about customer service and great art. I can take your idea, your dream or rough sketch and form it into a fabulous design on your skin".

FAQ

Your tattoo questions answered by Lark Street Tattoo

We get a lot of phone calls and emails about general tattoo and piecings inquiries, so feel free to contact us at 518-432-1905 with any questions. Here’s a few that we hear the most:

Your tattoo will take 2-4 weeks to completely heal during this time please gently wash it no more than twice a day using a simple anti bacterial soap. Apply lotion a few times a day to keep it moisturized but do not smother it. It wants to breathe! Mostly, keep it out of the sun, use a 45 or greater SPF. And No swimming for the first 4-5 days.

We strongly recommend you make one. Sometimes depending on how complicated a design you would like it is best to make a consultation to work with an artist and plan out your design.

Yes. To lock in a time or if you want an artist to build you a custom tattoo a $60-$100 deposit is required. This money does go toward the final cost of your tattoo. Deposits are non-refundable so make sure you are all in! You will also lose your deposit if you cancel in less than 24 hours or are a no-show. We are reserving time from our day for you and spending time and brainpower to design you the best tattoo we can so please respect that and communicate with us if there is a problem.
