From Chicago, Joshua (aka Yahushua, aka Gramma Kaiser, aka J Bone if you’re Mario) first heard about GLT when his now-husband got his hand tattooed by Kevin Leary in 2018.
He’s been getting tattooed himself for more than 16 years and has work from Nick, Brandon, Mike, Mario, Chip, Matt, Danni, Kevin, Felix, and a handful of guests including
GLT was lucky enough to have Joshua at the front counter for a couple years.
Now Joshua works as a project manager and
horticulturist for a landscape contractor.
Outside of work, he loves hunting estate and rummage sales, cooking and throwing dinner parties, visiting conservatories and gardens, and attending the CSO with his husband.
His favorite company? Their two pitties, Princess Leia (15) and Sassy (4).
Joshua is also rumored (by his nephews) to be a vampire — a rumor his years long
resistance to COVID kept alive. 🧛
Swipe to see some of his favorites, including his back piece by Nick Colella, originally designed by Cliff Raven.
✨GLT wouldn’t be what it is without the people who get tattooed here. We’ve decided to put the spotlight on them and the work they’ve collected from our tattooers and guest artists.✨
