Neo-Traditional Tattoos

I tattoo bold neo-traditional pieces with color or black and grey. Both with great detail.

Custom Neo-Traditional Piece

A custom neo-traditional tattoo shaped around your story, style, and preferred placement.

A More Personal Way to Wear Your Story

I begin with your concept, references, and the feeling you want the tattoo to carry. From there, I develop a composition with bold outlines, expressive color, and layered details that give the design depth without losing clarity.

The experience is collaborative from the start, with thoughtful attention to scale, flow, and how the artwork will sit on your body. You receive a considered design direction and a tattoo that feels visually strong, personal, and built to become part of your collection.

Ideal For

  • Clients with a meaningful tattoo concept

  • Colorful, illustrative tattoo ideas

  • Statement pieces with strong visual impact

  • Existing collections needing a distinctive addition

How It Works

  1. Share Your Idea: Tell me about your concept, references, placement, and preferred size.

  2. Shape The Design: I refine the composition, color direction, and details around your vision.

  3. Tattoo Session: We review the final direction before I create the piece with care and precision.
