The Studio
History: "Humble Beginnings"
Art Collective Tattoos was founded on February 1, 2021, with a unique vision and a determination to break down the age-old stigmas associated with tattoo studios. Passionate about both art and tattoos, I believe that ink on skin should be a celebration of self-expression and creativity, rather than a source of judgment. From day one, I set out to create a safe and inclusive space where everyone, regardless of their background or tattoo preferences, could find a home for their artistic aspirations. What truly sets Art Collective Tattoos apart is my unwavering commitment to the customer service experience. I understand that getting a tattoo is a deeply personal and transformative journey, and I prioritize the needs and desires of each client above all else. I believe that every piece of body art should tell a unique story, and take pride in guiding our clients through this creative process with care, respect, and a dedication to making your experience truly exceptional. At Art Collective Tattoos, it's not just about getting inked; it's about embracing your individuality and breaking free from the old stereotypes that have held tattooing back for far too long.
How I Work
1. Book Your Appointment: Secure a slot with me as your artist at a time that suits you. 3. Consult and Pre-Production Phase: Engage in a detailed consultation to finalize your design and address any concerns. 4. Mentally Prepare: Ready yourself for the experience, both physically and mentally. 5. Delivery and Production: Experience the artistry as your design comes to life, ensuring a memorable and personal tattoo experience.
The tattoo consultation process typically includes several key steps:
1. Initial Contact: The client reaches out to the studio or specific artist to express interest in getting a tattoo.
2. Discussion of Ideas: The client and artist discuss the tattoo concept, including design ideas, size, placement, and color preferences.
3. Design Review: I takes notes on a design based on the discussion.
4. Scheduling: The appointment for the tattoo session is scheduled.
At Art Collective Augusta, the piercing process begins with a personal consultation, where you discuss your piercing ideas with a skilled piercer. This includes standard surgical steel without the nickel jewelry from our collection. The area for piercing is then thoroughly cleaned and marked if needed for precision. The actual piercing is performed using sterile techniques to ensure safety and minimize discomfort. After the procedure, you'll receive comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and maintenance of your new piercing.
Consultation & Concept:
We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your vision, theme, color preferences, size, and desired medium (canvas, clothing, mural, etc.). You can share photos, sketches, or inspiration to help guide the design.
Quote & Deposit:
Once the concept is finalized, you’ll receive a written quote outlining pricing, materials, and estimated turnaround time. A non-refundable deposit (typically 50%) is required to begin your project.
Design & Approval:
Our artist creates a preliminary sketch or digital mockup for your review. You’ll have the opportunity to request revisions before final approval and production.
Creation & Completion:
After approval, we begin the final artwork. Completion time varies by project type and complexity, with regular progress updates provided.
Delivery or Pickup:
Once finished, your custom piece will be carefully packaged for pickup, local delivery, or shipping. Final payment is due upon completion.
Consultation & Design Selection:
We start with a brief consultation to discuss your desired look, placement, and gem style. You can choose from Swarovski crystals, 18k gold charms, or other available designs to match your aesthetic.
Preparation & Cleaning:
The tooth surface is professionally cleaned and dried to ensure proper adhesion. No drilling or damage is done to the enamel — the process is completely safe and non-invasive.
Application:
A dental-grade adhesive and curing light are used to secure the gem in place, similar to the bonding process for braces. The procedure is quick and painless, typically taking 15–30 minutes.
Aftercare & Longevity:
You’ll receive aftercare instructions to help your gem last as long as possible (usually 6 months to 2 years). Touch-ups or removals can be done at any time by our certified artist.
Birthdays, Classes, Corporate Events, Family Outings you are sure to enjoy our paint parties hosted by one of our artist.

Each participant follows step-by-step directions to complete their own unique painting while enjoying their favorite beverages and good company. Events can be hosted in-studio at Umbrella Art Collective or on location at your chosen venue. We handle setup and cleanup, so you can focus on enjoying the experience. No artistic experience required — just bring your imagination and we’ll handle the rest. Led by professional artists, each session includes step-by-step instruction, all materials, and a guided creative atmosphere perfect for beginners and seasoned painters alike. Guests can unwind, enjoy a drink, and discover their inner artist while building stronger relationships through shared creativity. Ideal for team-building, client appreciation, staff celebrations, and networking events, our Sip & Paint parties can be tailored to your theme, company values, or brand colors—making every experience unique and memorable.

The Artists
Vince
Owner / Artist
I’m Vincent Willis — an artist, mentor, entrepreneur, and founder of Umbrella Art Collective LLC. I am from Colombia, South America currently based in Georgia. My creative journey began as a kid drawing Pokémon characters on the walls at home and selling my artwork at school just to buy ice cream. Those early moments of passion and hustle shaped the artist I’ve become.
Over time, that spark evolved into a lifelong pursuit of storytelling through art.
Today, my work spans tattooing, murals, fashion, and digital design — blending black and grey realism, anime, and illustrative styles into pieces that carry emotion, depth, and meaning. I dedicate my craft to my family, my friends, and the athletes I’ve mentored or played along side with in soccer and basketball — each of whom pushes me to create with purpose and persistence. Through Umbrella Art Collective, I strive to build spaces where creativity, mentorship, and community collide — empowering others to discover their own artistic voice. For me, every project is a reminder that life itself is the canvas, and art is how we leave our mark.

Me'Kiala Kalan

Hi, I’m Me’Kiala Kalan! As a native of Augusta, GA, I’m excited to share my creativity and talent with a community that has helped shape my growth and ambition.

Dustin
Apprentice
I’m Dustin, growing up as a military kid I moved around everywhere. As a young kid moving around so much I quickly found drawing as an outlet. When I got a bit older I found out I could use those same skills to draw on myself, expressing myself through the artwork I put on my skin. That naturally evolved into an obsession with tattooing. I got my first tattoo the day I turned 18 and haven’t looked back since. I love sharing the talents God blessed me with to create artwork for others that is meaningful. I love hearing the stories behind every tattoo.
