Meet The Team

Tattooer Greg Woodrow was born in Oshawa and has been living around this area all of his life. His father worked at General Motors and instilled a pride of Oshawa in Greg. As Greg grew older, he knew he wanted to become a tattooer and pursued that until he finally landed an apprenticeship. Now ten years into the industry, Greg has been tattooing at Taunton Tattoo Company alone for 9 years this February. While capable of many styles, many people seek Greg out for his traditional or cover-up tattoos and he has developed a reputation of creating bold, long-lasting tattoos.

Tattooer Kris “Krawfish” Gregoire was born in Comox, British Columbia but has lived in Toronto for the past 25 years. Five years after moving to Toronto he began professionally tattooing and hasn’t looked back since. He has been at numerous tattoo conventions and has been featured in magazines. Now working at Taunton Tattoo Company, he appreciates working alongside one of his tattooing idols, Carl Carscallen, and the other great team members. Kris loves to draw and always has a large collection of custom drawings available to be tattooed. He especially enjoys doing new traditional and evil/demonic black and grey pieces. When Kris isn’t tattooing, he enjoys skateboarding and hanging out with his family.

Carl joined the Taunton Tattoo Company crew in early 2016.  He has been a tattoo artist for many, many years and he first started working in professional shops in 1993.  His years of experience have made Carl incredibly knowledgeable and he is able to work with any customer to create a custom and quality piece.  Carl used to work at the original Way Cool Tattoos on Queen St. where he acquired a following of customers.

When not tattooing, Carl likes oi music, bull terriers, and movies.

Nathan “Lime” Draper was born in Leeds and immigrated to Ontario, Canada when he was sixteen. He began his tattooing career in 2010 when he first worked at Taunton Tattoo Company along. Nathan quickly became known for his solid traditional work and moved to various shops around the area before settling back into his home shop. He enjoys creating his own custom traditional flash, which is featured throughout the shop and available to be tattooed. Nathan’s other passion includes boxing and he follows a strict workout regime to prepare for his match in Austin, Texas.
