I have a deep appreciation for freehand tattooing, allowing me to create designs tailored to each unique body part. Clients often express that the tattoos feel like a natural extension of themselves, as though they were destined to wear the art. I devote significant time to studying each subject thoroughly.

The Artist

  My journey into the realm of art commenced at the tender age of five in my native Colombia. It all began with a simple yet enchanting lesson from my grandmother, who unveiled the mystique of drawing a petite chicken in three graceful strokes. My young mind was captivated, fueled by the animated worlds of Dragon Ball Z, Pokémon, and Rugrats that I ardently admired.

Despite this early artistic spark, I temporarily set aside my creative pursuits upon relocating to Miami, immersing myself in the realms of sports and revelry for many years. However, a profound awakening awaited me around the age of 25. It dawned on me that channeling my energies into art was not just a passion but a pathway to financial independence and the freedom to savor life's richest experiences.

Tattooing emerged as the conduit to manifest my visions into reality and generate immediate income. I delved deep into perfecting my craft, meticulously refining my line work with a fusion of bold and delicate strokes, exploring pepper shading, digital design, and navigating the intricacies of a challenging geometric tattoo style. Dedication became my companion as I poured 80 to 100 hours a week into honing my skills, accelerating my growth exponentially.

Three years into my tattooing odyssey, I transplanted my talents to Los Angeles, where the vibrant artistic community welcomed me with open arms. Under the guidance of a mentor named Alejandro at Site of Grace in Weho, I discovered my signature style—Blackwork and Geometric Tattoos.

My creative reservoir drew inspiration from a diverse array of global artists such as Jon Nelson from Borrowed Time Tattoo, Alejandro from Site Of Grace, Heukdo from Korea, XCjXtattoer, Chase Nolan, CCyle, and the esteemed Alex Sorsa from Russia, among others. As a self-taught artist, my education unfolded within the walls of my home, leveraging Instagram and YouTube as invaluable tools. I sought insights from fellow artists, and when the opportunity finally arose to witness their work firsthand in LA, I knew I had serendipitously found my place in the universe, graciously guided by the Tattoo Gods.

Now, with an unwavering commitment to my craft, I proudly tattoo in my distinctive style—a manifestation of my childhood dream where illustrations come to life. Tattooing has become the conduit through which I breathe life into my artistic visions, bringing me closer than ever to the enchanting dreams of my youth.
