Sanctuary Tattoo has been offering custom tattoos with artistry and integrity in Portland, Maine since 1999. The studio operates on an artist-direct booking model, with clients selecting a specific artist and reaching out to them individually rather than working through general shop scheduling. Free consultations are offered to help clients plan their pieces before committing to an appointment.
The current resident artists, Aaron Burns and Ryan Fleming, bring distinct specialties to the shop. Aaron's portfolio showcases bold animal and nature-inspired imagery, including detailed birds, skulls, and florals, while Ryan is known for vibrant watercolor-style tattoos featuring flowers, wildlife, and literary themes, along with geometric designs and cover-up work. Each artist maintains their own galleries and personal websites, reflecting an emphasis on individual artistic voice within the shop. With decades of continuous operation in Portland, Sanctuary has built a reputation around custom, personalized tattoo work rather than flash or walk-in pieces, encouraging clients to connect directly with the artist whose style matches their vision.
