CHRIS STRIK BIOGRAPHY
As co-owner of Paragon Tattoo, Chris Strik has spent more than 18 years developing a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship, creative collaboration, and custom tattoo design. His passion lies in creating tattoos that are not only visually striking today but continue to look strong and timeless for years to come.
Chris believes every tattoo should be unique to the individual wearing it. Rather than relying on pre-made designs, he works closely with each client to understand their ideas, discuss placement, and develop original artwork that complements both their vision and their body.
Whether it's a bold Japanese-inspired sleeve, a detailed black and grey piece, or a completely custom concept, Chris approaches every project with the same level of dedication, precision, and attention to detail.
Known for his relaxed, professional approach, Chris ensures every client feels comfortable throughout the entire process—from the initial consultation through to the finished tattoo. His commitment to quality craftsmanship and client experience has helped establish Paragon Tattoo as one of Brisbane's trusted custom tattoo studios.
