At the end of your session(s) with Tim you will feel like you gained a friend. A lot of artists I’ve met aren’t as genuine and kind. He is an incredible tattoo artist. I don’t know much about tattoos myself, in fact, he gave me my first tattoo today and it was extremely professional, clean and informative.
He did an entire sleeve on my husband and it’s looks very realistic and I can’t stop staring at it!
If you’re thinking about booking with him, there’s no need to think on it any more because he truly is the best!

I’m about 16hrs (3 sessions) into a sleeve project with Tim right now and I couldn’t be any more excited and happy with the overall experience I’ve had.
He was very informative and helpful during the consultation and made me completely at ease to trust him with my ideas for the project. The design he created is absolutely stunning and made me even more confident in my choice of artist.
The tattooing process with Tim is phenomenal. The studio is spotless and he takes great care to make sure all the chairs, tables, equipment and tools he’s using are all sterilized and wrapped up. He is very attentive to the condition of your skin while he tattoos. Always making sure that he’s not tattooing over areas that have started to bruise or swell. By the end of each session, the progress we make on the piece just makes me even more excited for the next session and to see the finished project.
I highly recommend everyone to Tim. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.

Timmy is the best of the best. Hands down. He done a Portrait of my dad on my chest that looks better then the picture I gave him to use. His studio was very clean and up to date. He only used the best of equipment and Materials. I can’t say enough good things about my time spent at The Forge Gallery with Timmy Warner. I will definitely be going back for more sessions. Best of the best!!

Absolutely the best experience I've had getting a tattoo. I had multiple sessions. Design was amazing, fully unique and one of a kind. Tim is very professional and kind, along with his wife Audrey. Very high quality.

Tim does amazing work. He's a true artist. I had a 10 year old nasty scar and a tattoo that was 20 years old. He covered it beautifully with a killer tattoo. I highly recommend this gallery. Tim is extremely talented!

Tim is by far the most professional and cleanly tattoo artist in the Greater Chattanooga area! He tattooed me a few years ago, and I honestly don’t even like referring to his work as “tattooing.” What he does is so much more than that. He’s an artist through and through. He creates masterpieces, and he’s also involved in community efforts. He cares about helping sex trafficking victims and spreading his love for art all over.

Hands down the best artist in the area. Very clean professional and treats every detail of your experience with highest priority. Tim goes above and beyond to give you exactly what there for. If your not using Tim and the forge gallery as your tattoo artist your simply settling for less.
