Glen Hartless began tattooing in the winter of 2007 and has built an international career defined by discipline, adaptability, and technical precision. Specializing in illustrative realism and black & grey portraiture, his work is structured to hold integrity over time.
Having lived and tattooed around the world — from Australia to the United Kingdom — Glen has worked at dozens of international conventions, refining a globally influenced and performance-driven approach to tattooing.
A Pro Team Artist sponsored by EMALLA, Glen works with industry-leading equipment to maintain consistency and technical excellence across every project.
Throughout his career, he has tattooed public figures and recording artists including Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, 21 Savage, Drake, Christie Mack, Angelina Jolie, and many others. He has tattooed live on MTV and MuchMusic, and once completed a tattoo mid-flight at 10,000 feet.
Glen is known for taking on technically demanding projects, particularly large-scale compositions and complex cover-ups, approaching each piece with intensity and control.
