PJ's Backdoor Studio

Tattoo Artist

Backdoor studio is a small, unassuming tattoo shop, built a solid reputation of quality, care, and experience. The Sacramento area has enjoyed the Backdoor's unique brand of tattooing for over 30 years. The owner, PJ English, has been an artist since he was old enough to hold a pencil. PJ has been putting his art on skin since the early 70's.

With PJ's talent and wealth of experience, you can be sure you will get what you need to make your mark in the world. Whether it's your first tattoo or your twenty-first, Backdoor has the ability to bring your demographic ideas to life.

Availability is a premium so appointments are a great idea. We will do our best to accommodate walk-ins, however quality tattoo work usually requires preliminary pattern make-up work that may take a considerable amount of time. Read more

    PJ does the best work at a reasonable price. He's tattooed 2 of my sons plus myself. Can do it all. Look forward to my next tattoo.

    Been going here for over 15 years. Soft-spoken, humble and knowledgeable as hell, PJ aka "Doc" is a master at his craft. If you want a tattoo that feels more like a timeless work of art, this is the place!
