Michael Fisher, Fish to his friends and family, has been tattooing with Timeless Craft (originally Whole Addiction) since 2002. He started tattooing in 1995, apprenticing under Onkel Pete Stuffer (RIP) in Germantown, MD. He helped establish Perforations in Washington DC, in spring 1995, first as a piercer and then moving over to tattooing full-time once his apprenticeship was complete. During this period, Fish completed seminars in fineline portraiture with Jack Rudy and large-scale custom tattooing with Paul Booth. In, 2000, Fish left Perforations to work at Grafixx Tattoo, also in Washington DC, for the next two years. Realizing his future was not in the nation’s Capitol, Fish relocated to South Florida in February 2002. He bounced around a bit until he found his home at Whole Addiction in September 2002. He decided to take a chance in 2020 and on January 1, 2021 became the owner of Timeless Craft.
With over twenty-five years in the tattoo industry, Fish has an affinity for fine-line black and grey work including portraiture, illustrative color tattooing, and cover-up and repair work. He is more than capable of any style of tattoo you want. He continues to endeavor to constantly improve and add to his skills.
Fish has worn many hats in his long life. He has done a little of everything, including US Navy Hospital Corpsman, club DJ, electronic security specialist, psychiatric technician, painter, and currently, father, Mason, author, shop owner, and tattooer, not necessarily in that order. He has a love of ugly Hawaian shirts. He also bears a passing resemblance to The Dude in The Big Lebowski.
So I won a swag pack from @dynamiccolor in their #12DaysOfChristmas giveaway and I don’t know which I think is better- the steel #DynamicBlack bottle opener or the Shitter Key keychain.
A lil banger on @coldbratpokes this weekend to fill some space. We mixed styles and textures in this one including my signature illustrative realism 💀combined with traddy daddy on that chain! ⛓️
Don’t flail around and come get yours! 🤘🏻🔥

‘‘Tis the season to be scary!” Now is the time for all things dark, evil, spooky, and creepy.
In these weeks leading up to Halloween, I’m looking to do more horror-themed tattoos. Want a Bride of Frankenstein piece? I have the perfect one. Looking for a Pumpkinhead portrait? Gotcha. Want a Pennywise tattoo? Let’s do It!
