Straight outta Saskatoon, Jesse Zabos knew from the time he could hold a crayon that he wasn’t cut out for a desk job. By the time most kids were doodling on their homework, Jesse was dreaming about turning people into walking, talking art galleries.

He picked up his first tattoo machine in 2003, and by 2006, after a proper apprenticeship (read: years of grinding, learning, and maybe bleeding a little), Jesse officially became a professional tattoo artist. Fast forward to today, and he’s got over 20 awards under his belt — including “Best Tattoo Artist” by Planet S magazine’s People's Choice in 2015 and 2016 — and a portfolio full of pieces that speak louder than this bio ever could.

From clean black and grey to bold color work, realism to traditional, Jesse does it all — and he does it damn well. He’s got a freakish attention to detail, a borderline obsessive love for art, and just the right amount of caffeine to keep him buzzing through every tattoo session.

But it’s not just about the ink — Jesse’s all about the people. His vibe is equal parts pro and chill, making clients feel like VIPs while keeping things light and fun (unless you pass out, then it's just light-headed).

“Big thanks to all the incredible artists I’ve worked with over the years. You’ve helped shape my craft and kept me humble...ish.”
