Meet TJ Cornelius: The Heart Behind Fallen Raven

 

A Decade of Ink and Passion

Ten years ago, I started my journey in tattoo artistry, learning the ropes from Cody Schneider at Scarlet Raven in Lincoln, NE. It was there, amidst ink and creativity, that I found my calling.

From Nebraska to South Carolina

After years of honing my skills and developing my unique style, I took a leap and moved to South Carolina. Here, in Fountain Inn and Simpsonville, I started Fallen Raven. It’s not just a tattoo shop; it’s my dream and a space where art meets personal stories.

My Art, Your Story

My approach to tattooing is simple: it’s about you, your story, and how we can express it through art. Whether it’s a detailed black and grey piece or something bold and colorful, each tattoo is a personal journey. And for me, that’s what makes this job incredible.

Why Fallen Raven?

I founded Fallen Raven with a vision of not just creating tattoos, but crafting experiences. It’s about the connection, the conversation, and the satisfaction of seeing your idea come to life on your skin.

Let’s Create Something Together

If you’re in Fountain Inn or Simpsonville and thinking about getting a tattoo, let’s talk. I’m here to help bring your ideas to life, one tattoo at a time.
