Meet the artist

Hey there, I'm Michael Sutton, the proud owner of Mr. Shorty's Tattoo Emporium. I approach each piece not as just ink on skin, but as a reflection of my passion and dedication to this art form.

Specializing in illustrative black and gray, geometric designs, and neotraditional styles, I bring a unique touch to every piece I create. Each tattoo is a collaboration between myself and my clients. Resulting in artwork that tells a story and remains timeless.

Beyond the studio, I'm a proud family man with two amazing boys who inspire me everyday. When I'm not tattooing, you can find me indulging in my favorite shows, whether it's immersing myself in the magical world of Harry Potter or rooting for contestants on the Great British Bake Off. For me, tattooing is more than just a job-it's a passion, a lifestyle, and a journey of constant growth and improvement.
