JOHN LAPIDES.
John Lapides: The Virtuoso of Fine Lines and Bold Designs
Meet John Lapides, better known as Spray Day—a true original hailing from the sun-soaked streets of Southern California. Since 2021, John has been making waves in Colorado, bringing his West Coast flair to the Rocky Mountains. His journey into the world of tattooing leaped across the pond, where he honed his craft under the legendary guidance of Captain Ahab’s Tattoo in England.
John’s artistic arsenal is nothing short of impressive. Specializing in fine line, razor-sharp tattoos, blackwork, geometric patterns, and neo-traditional styles, he elevates tattooing to new heights. Each piece he creates is a testament to his meticulous attention to detail and passion for pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with ink.
But John's talent isn’t the only thing that sets him apart. His magnetic personality and laid-back vibe make every session with him more than just an appointment—it’s an experience. When he's not perfecting his craft in the studio, you can find him shredding the slopes as an avid snowboarder, always chasing the next adrenaline rush.
John Lapides isn’t just a tattoo artist; he’s a force of creativity, a trailblazer in the industry, and the kind of guy you can’t help but want to hang out with. Ready for a tattoo that’s as fresh, dynamic, and cool as John himself? Book your session and let the adventure begin.

It is a beautiful thing to fall in love with your body again and John’s artistic creations have aided in my self love journey beyond what I thought possible. His attention to detail, crisp lines, and easy going nature make me come back again and again. I can not recommend him and his shop enough. I’d follow them all over Colorado to sit in any of their chairs.
