Ethan Norton

Ethan Norton — born and raised in Purcell, Oklahoma — has always had a knack for turning blank spaces into something worth staring at. He started drawing in high school, long before his first “studio” session: tattooing a buddy right there on the kitchen floor. After graduation, he sharpened his skills at a painting studio, learning color, precision, and patience before trading paintbrushes for tattoo needles.

Two years into tattooing, Ethan’s built a name for himself with a style that’s realistic, personable, and detailed — just like the guy himself. If his life were a movie, it’d be called “Gator Got His Gyat” — a wild mix of grit, humor, and heart that perfectly sums him up.
