Lance Pfaff

Lance Pfaff is named as a tattoo artist on Blackgate Tattoo Collective's current artist page and has his own profile page. That profile states more than five years of tattooing and repeatedly describes colour-led work: flowing line work, rich colour contrast, and expressive colour, with impressionist and street-art influences. Only colour maps to the normalised style vocabulary and is the sole style retained. He publishes a professional email address and the Instagram profile @firstknightstudio.

Blackgate Tattoo Collective

Blackgate Tattoo Collective is a tattoo and piercing studio at 63 Front Street West in Strathroy, Ontario. Its current official site names five tattoo artists — Jay Slaven, Ricky Vieira, Abby Shelley, Lance Pfaff, and Tony Kilmer — each with an individual profile page and a linked professional profile. The site publishes opening hours of Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 4pm, and directs tattoo consultations either to [email protected] or to messaging the chosen artist on their professional profile. Piercer Jaison and the co-located laser and IPL business Twin Sign Esthetics are kept outside the tattoo roster.
