Welcome to Grimwood

In the shadowed wilderness where the fog never lifts and the trees
whisper ancient curses, sits a forgotten village forged in blood, steel, and ink.
Each blade bears a legend. Each mark tells a tale.

Tales from the Village...

Ryker is the absolute best! He's able to interpret my rambling thoughts and ideas and turn them into masterpieces. I recently had a partial sleeve done which was scary, however, his work far exceeded my expectations and I am obsessed with it! The studio is very clean, uniquely decorated and welcoming.

Bought this as a gift. I got my boyfriend to join me in a tattoo obesession, and he's decided that weapons are his favorite. He LOVED the shirt design and it is quite comfortable. Shirt runs true to size, and it is a good-quality cotton T. I will be back to get my own!

I absolutely love this shirt! The quality, print job, the color is all perfect. I can’t wait to feature this as part of my clothing haul + book review on my channel. I don’t normally buy merch but I’m so happy with this purchase. Thanks Grimwood Village! Can’t wait for more!

Ray did an amazing job on my axe tattoo, perfect placement on my side arm. He's very friendly and amazing at what he does. Will definitely be going back.

Wicked cool shirt. Unlike anything else I have been able to find! Good quality would highly recommend.

I got my first tattoo ever with Ryker. He was both incredibly professional and kind, and his work was AMAZING. He totally captured what I wanted and gently spoke his expertise or explained things along the way. He made the experience an enjoyable one, would highly recommend him and this studio. Place was clean, chill, friendly.

Excellent quality, shirts run true to size and the person I got it for loved it!

I've been here twice now and had nothing but great experiences from customer service and artist talent. I went with my mom to get memorial tattoos for our dog and Ray exceeded all expectations. He took great care of us and was extremely respectful of the reason for our visit. I love Grimwood Village. To me it's always worth the price and wait.

Lay of the Land


Nestled deep within the mountains of San Diego, California - lies Grimwood Village, beneath a veil of mist and myth. Travelers who stumble upon the village speak of its strange beauty and the distant clang of hammers. But most of all, they talk about the shop at the village’s heart, the place where the tattoo artist works his magic.

Ryker isn’t just any skin marker; he’s a craftsman of legends told. His ink is an allegory of rare ingredients, and his hands guided by the spirits of his ancestors. Each tattoo he creates carries a piece of Grimwood itself. Those who wear his work say it changes them: courage finds the fearful, luck follows the lost, and strength wakes in the weary.

People from across the realms venture to find Grimwood. Not just for the art, but to become part of the legend... etched forever in ink and story. After all, not everyone can say they carry a piece of hidden magic on their skin.
