I’m Eric Bess, the artist behind Oomwah Arts. My independent practice is based inside Turnstyle Tattoo in Springfield, Ohio.
I personally review every inquiry so we can talk through your idea, placement, reference material, and the approach your tattoo needs. My focus is black-and-grey realism and portrait work.
