About
Working out of Birch Ave Tattoos in 100 Mile House, BC. Ten years deep into a style I built myself — three disciplines forced into one language, with a strict rule: red is earned, never assigned.
On the road for guest spots and conventions across BC, Alberta, and Ontario most of the year. Check the schedule before booking a home session.

The whole interaction was super friendly upon checking out his flash book, actually pulled me right in! Process during the tattoo was also phenomenal, made sure everything was going smoothly, was great with conversating during the "tougher spots." Overall fantastic experience :)
…It was my first tattoo so I was a bit nervous/excited but he was calm and patient. The art work is PHENOMENAL, exactly what I wanted. He is funny, fast, and a complete joy to work with. Would definitely recommend Nick War to anyone who wants a tattoo.
I have gotten 6 tattoos done by nick and they are by far my favourite done! I love his work
