Calavera's Custom Tattoos

Tattoo Artist

Calaveras custom tattoos was created in July of 2005. Calaveras opened with only three artists and now have an awesome team of seven artists with more than 65years combined experience in art and professional tattooing. We are still educating ourselves and our tattoo community. 10 years strong we are still forever thankful for the opportunity and we continue to grow.

Our goal is to provide our locals and tourists and military with the knowledgeable friendly service that they can count on. We provide custom artwork and are willing to collaborate with our clients to provide them with top-of-the-line artwork while striving to ensure a safe and sterile environment that will keep our friendships fresh for years to come. We are located in the historic Art District of Southtown near downtown, a block away from Hemisphere and within walking distance from the River Walk and River Center Mall. We are open six days a week from 1 pm to 9 pm (though on Sundays we close our doors at 5 pm)and closed on Monday.'So stop by and see what we can do for you. We'd love to work with you to design your next piece of art. Read more

    Came to San Antonio to see Green Day and stay the weekend for my bday. I was a walk in at Calaveras and Gerry was my artist, he is super nice and knowledgeable. He pulled off a perfect tattoo really quickly, absolutely no complaints here. I hope I'm able to come back soon

    I came to visit San Antonio and have had a tattoo before in Odessa, TX. I was wanting to do something memorable here, so we decided to get a tattoo. ... I was very impressed, I won't go anywhere else to get one again.

    I didn't even have an appointment, and I walked in and showed Santi what I wanted and he did the most awesome job! He did exactly what I wanted, but even improved it to make it look better! I will definitely be going back for more!

    Friends and I went on a day trip to San Antonio. We decided to get last minute tattoos. We saw that this place had great reviews! We did do a walk in, which wasn't a problem at all. It didn't take long to everything set up. I do HIGHLY recommend this place if you are getting spontaneous last minute tattoos. Crystal did my tattoo which turned out amazing!! Great line work, she was also very understanding about my twitchy arm!!! This shop is super clean, really freaking chill and really friendly. I really do recommend this place.

    Well My family and I are on a road trip and decided that we wanted to do something to remember San Antonio. Calavera's was the first to pop up and I'm glad it did. The customer service was great. ... She made me feel extremely comfortable and did an amazing job. If I am ever in San Antonio ever again ill make sure to stop by and get another tattoo from her.
