Gary Kolarik

Gary Kolarik joined the Empire Tattoo team in Clementon, NJ, in 2013 and officially began tattooing in 2015. Having lived in New Jersey his entire life, Gary values tattooing in his hometown, cherishing the trust and lasting bonds he builds with his clients. His strong points include script and black and grey work, though he also excels in color, particularly American Traditional and Japanese styles. In recent years, Gary has been pushing the boundaries of his black and grey realism and large color Japanese pieces. He prefers in-person consultations for larger projects and encourages appointments for all work, emphasizing his commitment to planning and precision. Gary guarantees his work for life, approaching his craft with serious dedication and continuously striving to perfect his skills to help clients achieve more than they imagined with every tattoo.
