∙ 12y agoYou don't need a college degree to be a tattoo artist. You don't even necessarily need a high school diploma, as it really has nothing to do with your artistic talent nor your ability to learn to tattoo…unless you have a crippling learning disability.
Having extensive knowledge of art, color theory, painting, etc., certainly will take you further than someone who really has to learn ALL of this in the duration of their apprenticeship, so it would be in your best interest to enroll in some art programs to get a better handle on the medium in which you want to enter. But if you know nothing of art, then I would have to ask why you would want to become a tattoo artist to begin with.

Do you need a tattoo license in Canada?
NO. However, let's get this straight. There is no Canadian licensing body that licenses the tattoo artist or certifies him/her to be able to tattoo. There is a school in Toronto, but it is not accredited to my knowledge. The tattoo artists' SHOP must be licensed. This process involves having Health Canada inspect the tattoo shop at least once a year to ensure that they are following Canada guidelines in health and safety (ensuring that the environment is clean, equipment is properly stored, used and sterilized where appropriate; ensure that the proper disinfectants are being used etc... People are quickly mixing up "licensed studio" with a "tattoo license or certification" which are two completely different things. Your shop has to be licensed, but the artist does not.
