Oliver Peck

Oliver Peck has established himself as a prominent tattoo artist, restaurateur, and reality television personality. After establishing himself as a highly sought-after artist in the tattoo community, Oliver Peck began tattooing professionally in 1991. He became a co-owner of Elm Street Tattoo in Dallas, Texas, and the owner of True Tattoo in Hollywood, California. Peck is renowned for his American traditional tattooing style, emphasizing precision and classic designs.

In June 2008, he broke a Guinness World Record by tattooing the number 13 on 415 individuals within a 24-hour period at Elm Street Tattoo. Expanding his entrepreneurial ventures, Peck opened Tiki Loco in October 2018, a hybrid coffee shop and vegan restaurant in Deep Ellum, Dallas. The establishment focused on Hawaiian and Mexican-inspired vegan dishes, coffee, and fresh juices, also engaging in community efforts by distributing leftover produce to hospitals. In 2015, Peck’s contributions to the tattoo industry were recognized when he won ‘Best Tattoo Artist’ in the Dallas Observer’s Best of Dallas contest.

He also introduced ‘tattoo roulette’ at Elm Street Tattoo, a concept involving clients randomly selecting flash tattoos from a gumball machine. While Tiki Loco ceased operations in early 2023, Oliver Peck’s indelible impact on the tattooing world remains profound. His distinctive American traditional style, record-breaking feats, and long-standing role as a leading figure on a major reality television series have solidified his position as a respected authority and innovator within the industry.
