It does depend a little on what you mean by "creating". Possibly you mean "designing a tattoo"? Or are you talking about the process of actually transferring a design to someone's skin?

"tattoo" is countable, plural "tattoos". Phrases like "making tattoo" and "creating tattoo" are therefore wrong. An article (or other determiner) is required for the singular noun.

AnonymousTattoo artist.
The question is asking for a verb. "Tattoo artist" is not a verb.
