About Buie
Dan Buie (aka Buie) is a St. Louis tattoo artist specializing in bold, dynamic tattoos inspired by anime, comics, and traditional Japanese art. Known for his intricate linework and vibrant characters, Dan merges storytelling with expert craftsmanship to create tattoos that stand out.
Dan Buie, a Tennessee transplant, is a connoisseur of all things nerdy—anime, comics, and science fiction are his passions. When he’s not tattooing, you’ll find him woodworking, tinkering on bikes, exploring the outdoors, or hanging out at home with Pamy and the pup pack. Indoors, he dives into traditional manga and Japanese works, drawing inspiration from cartoons and comics that influence his creative process.
Whether you want a detailed Japanese koi, a colorful anime character, or a striking comic book design, Dan ensures that every tattoo is a custom piece tailored to your vision. His diverse skill set also includes neotraditional, new school, and gothic dark art styles, making him the go-to artist for both high-contrast blackwork and rich, colorful tattoos.
