  Christian”Greenbeard” Perkins began his tattooing career in 2000 in Gulfport,MS. After graduating from The Savannah College of Art & Design in 1991 with a BFA Degree in Illustration, he spent the next decade as a freelance artist before stepping into the wonderful world of tattooing. American Tattoo Co. in Gulfport, MS was his first “home”. Two years later, American became Wonderland Tattoo, after one of Christian’s clients bought the shop with the agreement that he would stay put. Things were rolling along nicely when in August of 2005, Hurricane Katrina completely destroyed Wonderland Tattoo along with most of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Needing to relocate, Christian and his family returned to his home state of South Carolina.

  Finding a new home at A Dermagraphic Production in 2006 , he spent the next 8 years building a reputation and faithful clientele. In 2011, The Lucky 7 Tattoo Company opened at 820 Broad Street in historic downtown Augusta,GA. Christian joined the ranks at Lucky 7 in September of 2014.

• JR Mitchell

  A real Hillbilly from Hot Springs, Arkansas, I was doodling in the margins of my school papers when I was knee high to a grasshopper.
  I won the Most Promising Artist award in 7th grade art class, but didnt take art seriously until many years later, while in a very dark place.
  I happened to pick up a homemade tattoo machine while I was in that terrible place, and the rest is history. After only a few tattoos, I knew I had found my calling. The smiles on the faces of the people I tattooed were the most gratifying thing that had ever happened to me.
  My early influences in tattooing were Paul Booth, Bob Tyrrell and Tom Renshaw, along with the works of HR Giger and Salvador Dali, and the writings of Stephen King and Dean Koontz.
  I would call myself a Surrealism artist, both on canvas and skin, who can go back and forth easily between color or Black and Grey. I specialize in cover up tattoos, and scar coverups, as it comes very natural to me to see an image within another image. I am known for free handing tattoos, drawing directly on the skin with markers, then tattooing my marker drawing right then. This skill has come in very handy , as I can change up my drawings as I go!
  Above all, I want my work to be seen as original, and I hope it invokes feeling well beyond the obvious subject matter, and that it enriches the lives of those who wear it forever.

• Jill Ashley

  Jill is a familiar face at The Lucky 7 Tattoo Company. She has stepped out from our counter and into our piercing booth. Her priority has always been to help provide the best experiences for our clients and that has only grown as she has taken on the responsibility of piercing. Even though she’s a yankee, she has the spirit of an old southern grandmother, so don’t be surprised if she wipes that tear you dropped after your nostril piercing, offers you a sweat treat for being on your best behavior,  or tells you to get your act together when you’re acting a fool. Her hope is that every client leaves knowing they were pierced with high quality jewelry,  in a safe and clean environment,  by someone who truly appreciates her clients
