ADRIEN MOSES CLARK

Adrien Clark, Founder, Axe of Kindness Tattoo

Buffalo born and Rochester raised, I have enjoyed this city since moving here just before my eighth birthday. In 2004 my path lead me to tattooing and I have not looked back. I find myself fortunate, privileged, and honored to work, learn, and improve in this craft.

I love tattooing! Style wise I love most– and primarily focus on– mandalas, geometric work; styles rooted in traditional Japanese and traditional American tattooing, line work intensive, and illustrative work. I may take on other styles, but these are the subjects that I have the greatest passion for.

Tattooing has given me a lot and I am glad that I find myself in a position where I can not only give back to tattooing, but also to the community I wish just as much success and prosperity. These things are what inspired my drive to open AOK.

Adrien is, hands down, the best tattoo artist I have ever been to. Not only is his work exceptional, he’s kind, patient and his vibe makes you feel so comfortable as soon as you walk through the door. I recently had him craft up a beautiful piece for my inner forearm and when he was finished, it blew me away. His attention to detail is phenomenal and he is so incredibly talented. I can’t see myself ever getting tattooed by anyone but him.
