Welcome to Raven Mocker Tattoo, we appreciate your interest in the Lore!

We are an artist owned and operated private tattoo studio in downtown Kingsport, TN; established in October 2020 by Jonathan Swiney (Giga). He began apprenticing under Brandy Patterson in 2015 until graduating his apprenticeship in March 2018. After working in a few street shops for the next 2.5 years after his apprenticeship he decided to open Raven Mocker.

The spirit of Raven Mocker Tattoo embodies his love for the strange, scary, and unusual. While simultaneously offering a Creative Sanctuary for like minded souls to express themselves without the fear of judgment.

Jonathan wanted to create a space that also offers every client more privacy than you’ll find in most studios and street shops. Sure there’s no shame in getting any part of your body tattooed in front of anyone that’s at the tattoo shop. However we know that not everyone is comfortable doing so, and that shouldn’t go unnoticed either! The tattoo procedure booth offers full wrap around privacy curtains for anyone that requests them during their sessions.

We operate primarily by appointment. To book with us please fill out a booking form and we’ll reach back out to get you on the schedule!

Walk-ins are welcome but aren’t guaranteed. Follow us on our social media pages to stay up to date on our special walk in events.
