Jeremy Wiscombe

High Detail Tattoo Artist

Jeremy is a tattoo artist specializing in high-contrast black and grey work, dot work, fine line, and freehand gesture. He often draws inspiration from wildlife and photography, creating tattoos that capture both detail and depth. Originally from Salmon, Idaho, he now works out of Hedera in Lewiston.

Outside of tattooing, Jeremy has left his “sweaty COD days” behind but still sneaks in an hour of gaming here and there. He’s passionate about fine trades and skills that are fading with time, and he considers himself a dabbler, someone who’s tried just about every medium at least once. Though he’s constantly chasing perfection (and rarely satisfied with his own work), it’s that drive that pushes his art forward. He also has an uncanny ability to recall and recognize music, but his favorite titles in life will always be “Dad” and “Dessa’s husband.” And if you ask him, he might just tell you he’s literally Wyatt Earp.

For Jeremy, tattooing is about growth, connection, and passion. He wants every tattoo he creates to be better than the last, and nothing matters more to him than seeing his clients overjoyed when they leave. He especially enjoys correcting and reworking old tattoos, transforming them into pieces that finally match the client’s vision—those moments of satisfaction are what drive him. The friendships he’s made along the way are just as rewarding as the tattoos themselves, and he believes the skin holds limitless potential for depth and storytelling.

His philosophy is simple: if you’re passionate about the tattoo you want, he’ll be just as passionate about bringing it to life. When you take the time to book with Jeremy, he’ll be there to welcome you, work with you, and treat you like an old friend.
