Yes, actor Titus Welliver does have several tattoos.

Does Titus Welliver have tattoos?


Titus Welliver has as many as thirty tattoos, and each of those tattoos has a specific personal importance. Some of the tattoos are names and birthdays of Welliver’s children and then some are about the actor’s backgrounds - both Irish and American. His first tattoo, as per the actor, was a symbol of his martial art dojo. In an exclusive Interview with Inked magazine, Welliver shared an interesting story about finding his tattoo artist back in the nineties:

“When I came to Los Angeles in 1990, I wanted some work done and Charlie Sheen suggested going to Sunset Strip Tattoo, where he had had quite a bit of his work done over the years. So, I have going back there over the years. Three years ago, I connected with an artist there named David Huet. He’s done quite a bit of work for me as well as Paul Timman, who is also at Sunset Strip.”


Welliver also shared his children's viewpoint regarding his tattoos:

“They seem to like my tattoos, although my daughter a few years ago made a statement along the lines of, “I thought you wouldn’t get any more tattoos and wouldn’t ride motorcycles. Now you have more than 20 tattoos, and 3 Harley Davidsons. Is there something wrong with you?” I believe she thought motorcycles and tattoos at my age were indicative of a mid-life crisis.”


Welliver has also spoken about how his perception about tattoos changed over the years.

“When I was a kid, I saw people with tattoos by and large as out-laws, old sailors, and bikers. People now, however, are no longer negatively stigmatized by having tattoos. It’s a form of self expression. Some people choose to have them where people can’t see them, and it’s still considered self expression. So it’s really dramatically changed. Growing up, I believe tattooing was even illegal in certain states. I remember when I was spending a summer in Maine, there were these tattoo tents in fairs, and there was a brawny big guy, making a horrific face as he was giving tattoos. As a kid, as much as I wanted tattoos, I thought, “I’m never getting it from that guy.”


Speaking about Bosch, Welliver shared how one of his tattoos - on the knuckle became a part of the character. The actor also mentioned that he got himself more tattoos after he started working on the show.
