Ive gotten 2/3 of my tattoos here over the last 7 years and its always high quality service and amazing work. I love my tattoos and will definitely be back.

Be prepared...for a great experience! These guys and gals are true professionals. Clean, welcoming, and packed with amazing artists that help ornament your life. Dont hesitate, this is your place.

Great experience! Eric is one of the best artists in the country, worth the cost! Krista, shop manager, was friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. Clean work, clean shop. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

I just got my tattoo done by Eric. He did an amazing job and honestly the best in the business I couldnt recommend him more.

Grand Junctions very best! Every one of them has exceptionally amazing talent without inflated egos to go with it. LOVE this place!! Even if you dont want ink, its worth going to look at the art gallery they have as well.

Great Local business. Would happily and highly recommend anyone come here!

Eric Campbell is a beast!!! Did an amazing job and would highly recommend him. He is absolutely the best there is! I got a cover up and it is absolutely amazing. I am super impressed with his work! Definitely worth the wait!

I just got my attack to done by Eric he is by far the best in the business very professional and I highly recommend.

Erik Campbell did an amazing job adding to my sleeve. I look forward to future collaborations with him.He took very minimal time from the drawing process to application. Further more he did everything from memory once I was stenciled.Very talented artist thanks Erik!

By far the most professional tattoo shop I have ever visited. All of the artists are amazing. Very high quality tattoos. Very clean shop. Will be back!

Best tattoo place in town. Robbie does amazing work. Totally worth the wait.

Some of the best artists in town are here. Very professional environment and the staff is great!

I absolutely love this place and the artists--so much so that I travel from out of state yearly to get work done by them. Not only are the tattoos world class, but the atmosphere is incredibly welcoming and fun. You cannot go wrong with this shop.

Jenny James is a fantastic artist!

I did my research and decided to give The Raw Canvas a try based on all the positive reviews theyd already received. That was the best thing I could have done to prepare for my fourth tattoo.Greg, my artist, is awesome. I did my consult, first time for a tattoo for me, and got my tattoo about 10 days ago. I waited until it had healed before submitting this review just in case but I need not have worried.Greg has a wonderful personality and is an engaging conversationalist in addition to having the best touch Ive ever experienced in a tattoo artist. We spent the hour having a great conversation about a variety of topics while he did his work on my shoulder. There was none of the pain or discomfort that Id experienced during my previous three tattoos (San Francisco, Seattle, and Cedar Rapids locations), his touch was perfect.He gave me very explicit after-care instructions that I followed to the letter. I am absolutely satisfied with the way my new tattoo turned out and Im already making plans for another piece of art by Greg.Thanks Greg, you were worth the wait - Ill be back!

I had a piece done by Erik a couple weeks ago and he did an amazing job! Plenty of attention to detail and he made sure it was perfect for me. I could not have asked for a better job done

All the artists are great and the atmosphere is awesome!

Great and professional artist each with their own unique style! My tattoo was done by Melora and she is amazing!

This place is amazing tattoo Artists.

Poor response to consultation request and email without real explanation.

Melora monticone does a wonderful job

I had the pleasure of working with Greg today and it was an amazing expierence! We had a consultation a while ago and he did deliver. Very informative and open about everything. He showed me different designs and talked me through everything. Very very great work. This picture does not do justice for the detail he has in there. Afterwards he went thoroughly over the cleaning and care instructions. I would highly recommend this place (especially Greg) for price the quality is AMAZING. I also bought one of there hoodies and I absolutely love it. It says Proudly Marked Raw Canvas. Will post updates as I go through the healing proces, go back for touch ups, and possibly more tattoos!

The whole shop is beautiful, clean and organized. Greg Heinz did my tattoo. He answered all my questions no matter how small or silly and made me feel comfortable with the process from the beginning to the end. 100% perfect experience.

Nothing but good things to say about this place. Most professional and welcoming people I have worked with. Seth did a great job with my tattoos and I cant wait for my next one.

Seth did the most AMAZING job on my tattoo!! I cant thank him enough for sharing his unbelievable talent with me.I will most definitely be back for another.

Enforce I cant recommend this place because of a personal relationship with some of the shady people at work there I would find a different shop to go to if I were you.

I highly recommend Robbie Campbell hes a really good tattoos so as much of the tattoos around there is Heather Arkansas pretty darn good

I wanted a memorial tattoo for my two Shih-tzus that passed away recently and set up a consultation with Johnny. The process was different than I had experienced before and I was nervous bc of the lack of clarification/understanding of their particular process. After a little frustration, Lizzey was extremely helpful in answering my questions and putting me at ease. I completely understood the $100 deposit and think it’s the only way to ensure the artists’ security for their work and the scheduled appt, however, it is not refundable so know that. It is transferable to another appt if you cancel within a couple days and want to reschedule but know that by putting down the deposit, you either will go through with the tattoo or you will forfeit the $100 if you change your mind...also fine, but not explained well until it was too late. I was also told that my design would be done upon arrival and the estimated time for the tattoo would only be charged for “chair time”. Also, not true. I arrived at 12 as scheduled, Johnny approached me and wanted to make sure we were on the same page and then I waited for 2 hrs for him to design the tattoo. Everything that came out in the tattoo was specifically stated by me in the consultation and via phone prior to the scheduled appt and there were no significant changes last minute or added design elemants. At shortly after two, the tattoo began and I was completely done with everything and out of the shop by 3:38pm. I was charged for “draw time” after being told by the receptionist that I wouldn’t be, regardless of who’s decision that may be. I didn’t say anything bc I didn’t want to take away from the fact that I love the tattoo and appreciated Johnny’s work. Again, I want to say that I love my tattoo and Johnny was personable and friendly. However, what I calculated to be $200-300, after being assured not to be charged for draw time ended up costing me $432 after tipping $65. Overall, I was disappointed in the frustration that I experienced for something as sentimental as it was that should’ve been exciting and heartfelt. I do love the tattoo but leaving to feel overcharged and frustrated is disappointing.ADDITIONAL REVIEW/UPDATE:After posting this review, I was contacted by the owner of Raw Canvas, Justin. His sincerity and effort in resolving my issue was very appreciated. It was very obvious to me that he is passionate about his business and takes pride in his daily operations. After speaking with Justin, I have a completely different opinion of Raw Canvas and would definately recommend them to anyone. The level of effort that Justin put into making sure that my experience was left on a better note was exemplarary of true/quality customer service. Thank you Justin for all of your effort and kindness in rectifying my experience with Raw Canvas. Another much deserved “thank you” to Lizzey and Krista for making me feel comfortable and welcome upon my return to Raw Canvas this week. Thanks again Raw Canvas!

Friendly, busy, talented. Browsed artists work on iPad. Filled out form to book a consultation. Easy peasy.

Robbie did an amazing job, and all the staff members Ive encountered are professional, friendly, and knowledgeable!

Im not in to tattoos or piercings but its an interesting place to see what can be done... my daughter has quite a few tattoos... very nice people.

Decided late in life to get one bad ass tattoo, like the work that Arlo had on his web site. After consultation and a little brain storming we came up with an angle on my back . After several short sessions because I had a problem with the inking, Arlo worked with me . Always the professional he treated me with care and we worked together to come up with a piece of art . The gallery is full of one of a kind pieces of art that you cant find at the big box stores. Wendy can get you started, just go in take the first step you wont regret . If you are looking for the Best in the West Tattoo Shop look no more its here in Grand Junction Colorado !!!!!! Tony

So awesome!

First Id like to let the public know Justin is in fact nothing more than a Diva. He mostly advertises his work on social network with almost all old tattoos that he touches up with photoshop. Dont pay his inflated prices for what could turn out to be complete garbage. Ask him about the onion flower that he did back on the beginning of December. It looked like a two year old went crazy with markers all over that poor girls body. It didnt take long for Justin to remove that garbage after the negative reviews.

Best place for a tattoo. I know people from all over the country that travel just to get their tattoos here.

Greatest place in Junction. If you need to know why you need to stop in and see them. You wont go anywhere else.

When I first went in, they appeared very friendly and fit me in-when I was a paying customer. However, when it came time for my free touch-up, they completely turned around. After two previous 1 1/2 hour drives down to their shop and at least ten phone calls (of which none were returned) I finally decided to try one last time. Although the touch up would have taken about ten minutes and Meloras next appointment was in 2 hours, they just couldnt do it. I will never return and strongly recommend to anyone looking for a shop to find an artist that is in it for more than money.

I love my engine and pinup cant wait to see what Seth will do to finish the sleeve.

The work done at this shop is beautiful. Aside from being on the more expensive end of tattoos, it is completely worth it.

Neat atmosphere, amazing artists.

The BEST shop in town!

Jenny James is radical.

The artist that was suppose to do my tattoo was recently let go and they did not offer to give me my deposit back or find me a new artist. I waited a long time just for a consultation and now they want me to wait again. Not interested. Sketch.

Melora delivered exactly what we asked for.

Amazing customer service, good ink, clean shop.

Jenny is amazing!!!

Awesome!

Pure Art!!!

Awesome shop with great artists

Best tattoo shop in town!

Great artists, cool vibe.
