About Deacon

American Traditional, heavy line weights, classic palette. Twelve years on the East Coast circuit. Walk-in friendly.

Deacon came up the old way: an apprenticeship at a Boston street shop, six years on the New England circuit, and a season at a Brooklyn parlor. He's the studio's American Traditional resident and only walk-in artist.
