David Klaiber

Born 1973 in the Garden State, New Jersey.

In the Summer of 1993 I was trained to tattoo by Mark Handcock in Zanesville Oh. Along the way I have been privileged to learn from too many amazing artist to list.
In the fall of 1999 I began Blue Byrd Tattoo studios.

I spend my day chasing time. There just is never enough time. time to spend with my clients time to spend with my staff and piers to share thoughts and ideas. I am blunt and opinionated and will tell you what I think about your choices.

I live and breathe Tattooing, I have even birthed a few worthy spawn to this industry. Carefully chosen and trained so well they all make me proud.

About my work: I enjoy nature pieces, modified realism, photo duplication and taking a design to a point where it shows a contemporary quality, expressing its subject, worthy of taking a longer look no matter how big or small. I feel relaxed when working a Black & Grey piece, Tribal designs no mater how evolved are meditative and not to ever leave out is the conversations and journey I have with my clients..

I am currently practicing tattoo and have retired from body piercing. I have studied body piercing since 1991 and can still answer questions and advise on piercings. I have created a safe progressive style of piercing & implemented this training for Blue Byrd staff to ensure a high level of quality for our customers, as they of course deserve.
