Jasen Kilgore, or Dr. Pain, as he is known to his clients and friends, is our patriarch tattooist and has been an artist his entire life. He got into tattooing when several of his friends wanted him to design their tattoos. It wasn't very long after that they wanted more. Everyone told him he should be doing them, not just drawing them. And just like that, Jasen found his calling and his new alter ego, as Dr. Pain was born. 

Get to know our artists and apprentices!
Hello there, I'm Randy! I am a licensed artist and have been with this amazing shop for almost 7 years now. I have 20+ years of tattooing under my belt and have always been very drawn to art as a great form of expression. Being able to give others a way to express themselves through my career has been an incredible experience. The best part of my job is meeting new people from all over and hearing their stories about what inspired them to get their tattoos. I look forward to working with you!
Hi everyone! My name is Antazia and I am an apprentice here at the shop. I've always had a very artistic side to me from drawing to painting to sculpting and photography. As this is a family owned business I am proud to say I am following in my fathers (Dr. Pain's) footsteps to become a great tattoo artist. I've been around the tattoo world for some time now and have grown very fond of the idea of giving people something so meaningful that they can carry with them forever. I am so excited for this next chapter in my book and look forward to giving you a memory to cherish for the rest of your days!

Hey everyone! My name is Bradley. I am the newest artist here at the shop. I've been tattooing since 2022. I love helping people conceptualize a way to beautify themselves. It is super rewarding. I grew up in the East Tn. area and I feel really positive about what I do here at Addictive Artistry! I am a full color artist who also enjoys tattooing many different styles, but tattooing cartoons is my favorite.
