Robert Atkinson, born in 1969 in Los Angeles, has built a remarkable career as a tattoo artist with roots in diverse creative endeavors. His journey into the tattoo world began in 1992 when friends gifted him his first tattoo kit, sparking his passion for the art form. Initially, Robert honed his skills while working at Melrose Tattoo, but it wasn't until his time at Royal Tattoo in Denmark in 1996 that he began to make a name for himself. With a few years of experience focusing on tribal tattoos, Robert relocated to Holland's Dragon Tattoo in Eindhoven, where he developed his distinctive western oriental style that has captivated tattoo enthusiasts worldwide.

Returning to Los Angeles in 2001, Robert Atkinson took the next step in his career by founding 10,000 WAVES TATTOO GALLERY in 2014 alongside his partner Jojo Ackermann. Known for his collaborative approach, Robert works closely with clients to ensure the subject matter and composition of each tattoo resonate personally with them. His most sought-after works are heavily influenced by Japanese culture and are known for their expansive scale and intricate details. Robert’s unique ability to craft designs that seamlessly meld with the natural contours of the body leaves clients feeling as though their tattoos are a natural extension of themselves.

In addition to his celebrated tattoos, Robert is also recognized for his foray into fashion with a bespoke shoe project launched in 2006. Each pair of shoes is a testament to his artistic flair, handmade, and unique, catered to discerning clients known for their distinctive style. To date, Robert has crafted over 350 pairs, coveted by those who appreciate the intersection of artistry and high-quality craftsmanship. His shoes complement his tattoo work by reflecting the same dedication to detail and individuality, continuing to cement Robert Atkinson’s status not only as a master tattooist but also as an innovative artist in multiple domains.
