Jason Nicholson
Artist
Jason has been an artist all his life. After graduating college he worked as a professional oil painter for the military. He would recreate battle scenes and was a portrait/memorial artist for soldiers that gave the ultimate sacrifice. Working mostly with the Navy SEAL community he has donated works to the Navy SEAL foundation and currently has two paintings hanging in the Navy SEAL museum in Fort Pierce FL. Though he still takes on painting projects he felt his next calling was in the tattoo industry where he holds a very strong passion for the craft. You can see his art background come to life in his tattoos creating a very painted style in his work. Book your consult with Jason below.

Drew Harris
Artist / Owner
Drew Harris puts his all into the ancient craft of tattooing. He started his tattooing career at Wizard & Co. II in West Chester, Pennsylvania. In August 2004, Drew began apprenticing under his mentor, Bill “Wizard” Paterson. Bill is known for his Black and Grey tattoos and incredible attention to detail. Drew worked under his mentor for nearly four years before deciding to pursue his own business. With help from his amazing family and friends, Drew opened Double Deez Tattoos in August 2008, located in West Chester, Pennsylvania. To better reflect each artists’ reputation, Drew changed the name of his studio to Double Diamond Tattoos in 2019. Since beginning his career, Drew’s style has changed drastically. It evolved from a New School / Cartooning approach into a style similar to that of his mentor, Black and Grey. While he takes pride being well versed in all styles, Drew now spends the majority of his time focusing on the art of Black and Grey Realism. He is always learning and building based off of experience and new ideas. Drew enjoys traveling to tattoo conventions, and has won many awards for various tattoos and styles. Drew molds his style into every completed tattoo to create a truly unique piece of art. Book a consult with Drew below
