ATHENS’ FAVORITE
TATTOO STUDIO.
Founded as a private studio in 2016 by owner Kim Deakins; Pink Goblin is a female owned and operated tattoo studio located in the Chase Street warehouse artist community and is a safe space for all genders, religions, races, and orientations.ย
GOOD VIBES. GREAT TATTOOS.
GOOD VIBES.
GREAT TATTOOS.
As a female artist who had been in the industry for 7 years; Kim was aware that many tattooers and shops were not inclusive or safe spaces for a large sector of clients and even artists. Her goal was to change that with a different kind of studio and be a part of ushering in a new generation and culture within the industry.ย
With the name evolving from Kimโs love of the science fiction/fantasy world- Pink Goblin fit the bill because she wanted a name that reflected what the space would be about: a chill, silly, fantastic, pro-female and all inclusive shop. A place where the goal is for people to be welcomed and appreciated when they come in, get the best quality tattooing we can provide and feel safe and respected as fellow human beings.

๐จ#GoblinFeatureFriday๐จ- Nic! @nicchancetattoo
We are picking back up with our team features this week because we have not just 1 new Goblin but 7 (yep 7) to introduce to you over the coming Fridays.
We're kicking it off with the first new tattooer addition to the team who joined us a little over a month ago, Nic. He is one of a few reasons we have switched from an all "Female Operation" to a "Girls, Gays & Theys" studio (as coined by our newest team members).
We first met Nic after his buddy Parker (who he worked with before they came to work at PG) invited him to be a part of our Goblin Gear shoot. He was quiet & a little bit shy as he is known to be at times but made an impression nonetheless and did so once again when he volunteered his time to help make our fundraiser for Project Safe which we called Project Pink happen. It soon became clear he was a Goblin at heart and belonged with us. Now over a month later and so many hours of driving later (he commutes over an hour each way to be with us) he is part of our tribe and we couldn't be happier to have him with us.
Now for a few fun facts! He can list EVERY winner of RuPaul's Drag Race in order off the top of his head. He was named after Nicholas Cage. He absolutely loves The Last of Us (gaymers & gamers, you know) & his first ever tattoo was one of the main characters Ellie's moth & fern arm piece which he got before the game even came out! His inspiration to become a tattooer was Teresa Sharpe, a badass Female tattooer you may know from Best Ink on the Oxygen Network. And lastly, while he does not have any pets of his own, Parker's oldest Cat son John Boy & him are best friends.
If all of this doesn't endear you to him, just swipe through these adorable pics from his past and definitely check out his bio page on our site where he shares more pertinent info about himself and you can also see the work that landed him a spot with us in his Insta gallery. ๐๐๐
