About Kurt
I am Kurt Deetjen, a San Diego–based tattoo artist focused on clean lines, solid execution, and designs that hold up over time.
I have been tattooing for over 25 years and have had the pleasure of tattooing all over the United States.
I take pride in creating tattoos that fit the person wearing them — whether that means bold, detailed work or simple, meaningful pieces.
My approach is straightforward with good communication, a comfortable environment and consistent professional results. I want every client to feel confident in the process and proud of what they walk out with.
If you’re looking for quality work and an easy, no-drama experience, I’d be glad to connect and help bring your idea to life.
I have experience with all styles of tattooing including:
- Japanese
- American Traditional
- Floral
- Fine Line
- Black and Grey
- Lettering
- Tribal
- Geometric
- Water Color
