Speciality: Black and Grey Abstract Realism

Michael crafts detailed tattoos that bring bold imagery to life. His work stands out for its high contrast, smooth shading and attention to detail. High contrast is a signature in Michael’s tattoos and is paramount for the tattoo’s longevity. Born and raised in San Jose, CA, his fascination with tattoos began in childhood, though it wasn’t until adulthood after years of collecting tattoos that he pursued his passion of tattooing as a profession. Alongside his love for tattooing, Michael is also an avid guitarist. Music serves as a second passion, fueling his creativity and adding another dimension to his artistic expression.
