Twelve Mile Tattoo

I recently got a tattoo from Maria Gerzen (after glowing recommendations from Chris and Jo) and am so happy with how it turned out! The colour is vibrant, it is healing well, and I'm very excited to book my next one. During the session I was able to sit quietly and read and listen to music - Maria had some very iconic ska/punk music playing! It was a great time, much appreciated, and we'll be back again soon.

Maria was amazing. Listened carefully to what I wanted, asked sensible questions to clarify her understanding and her final creative interpretation was fabulous. A very talented artist. I love the final result. Highly recommend.

I can’t say enough good things about working with Maria at twelve mile. Super collaborative and willing to push back in an artistic way to ensure I ended up with the best piece possible. Two thumbs up!!

I am so happy with my first tattoo from Maria who works out this welcoming Tattoo shop. If you are looking to have a unique amazing tattoo in a relaxed comfortable environment this is the shop for you. Maria is an exceptional artist and I cannot say enough great things about her, a true professional. The shop is clean and modern. I felt so relaxed, absolutely my best tattoo experience to date. I'll be returning many more times.

I was looking at getting a tattoo that you see in the photos. I stumbled upon this little gem on Lake St in St. Catharines, Ontario. Went in to talk to them about getting a new tattoo and was looking through an artist's book named Maria. When she came up and started talking to me about a tattoo, I was looking at getting. That is when I saw a tattoo she had done with wings that I wanted. I then explained about the tattoo in the photos below, and I asked if she could do it. Maria said that she had an opening on Friday and she could do it. She went above and beyond on what I was looking for. Thank Maria and Twelve Mile Tattoo for an amazing experience. Would recommend them and can't wait to go back.
