Tattoo Artist @ Social Graces Tattoo Studio in Miamisburg, OH

Local Tattoo Artist Specializing in Realism - Open to All Styles!

Hi, I’m Tim Grounds. I’ve been fortunate to pursue my lifelong passion for tattooing since 2004. For 20 years, my wife and I ran a tattoo studio in Oregon, and now we’ve made a new home in Dayton, OH. Living here has been a true blessing, allowing me to dedicate more time to my craft and connect more deeply with my clients.

I specialize in black and grey realism but also love working with color, trash polka, and incorporating modern styles into realistic art. Slowing down and truly collaborating with each client to create the perfect piece has become a highlight of my work. I’m also incredibly grateful to the Dayton tattoo community, whose support and creativity continue to inspire me every day. You can find me at Social Graces Tattoo Studio in Miamisburg, OH. I would love to be your tattoo artist.
