I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

My name is Verno and I am the owner and operator of The Holy Mackerel Studios located at 196 Forbes Avenue in St. Paul, MN...Just between Smith and Grand Avenues on West 7th Street. The Holy Mackerel is a professional Piercing and Tattooing studio that is located just blocks from Downtown St. Paul and the Excel Energy Center. Our phone number...get ready for it...651-222-HOLY. I have been a professional piercer in the industry every day for the last thirteen years and take my job, as well as your health and safety, very seriously. I would encourage you to check out all of my work including suspension, scarification and implantation at www.theholymackerel.com. Whether it is piercing, scarification or just new jewelry you are thinking of, I specialize in custom, unique jewelry and designs. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to either contact me at the shop or here on MySpace. The tattooing half of our studio features male and female tattoo artists with plenty of experience and fresh ideas for your tattoos. We are able to customize your idea or image to suit your needs...don't have an image yet? No problem, stop in for a consultation and we'll help you design exactly what you want. Walk-ins are always welcome!
Get .. Now Icons Here is a small preview of some of the body jewelry you will find in the studio. Some of the organic materials I carry are Water Buffalo Horn, Fossilized Walrus Jawbone and around twenty different types of indigneous and metamorphic stone. I also have Polish Amber, Petrified Wood, Oceanic Coral, Volcanic Obsidian and the list goes on and on. Most of these materials are natural by-products of the indigenous peoples where the pieces were made. If you are Vegan or Vegetarian I do carry a whole line of non-animal body jewelry that is made from nuts.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

YOU! I am looking for people who truly love body modification and are respectful of those who are not modified. I'm also interested in meeting people who can help keep this industry safer for the clients we meet every day...that means you health inspectors! I feel that most people are pure in their hearts and what I do is something that can bring more of that to the surface to be shared with the rest of the world!
