Some tattoos carry more than a story.

From family portraits and beloved pets to memorial pieces honoring those no longer with us, every tribute tattoo deserves patience, precision, and respect. My goal is to capture the details and personality that make each subject unforgettable.

If you’re looking for a custom portrait or tribute tattoo in Azusa, DM me “BOOK” to start your design.

The ones you love, captured in ink.

Black and grey tattoos are all about strong contrast, smooth shading, and details that bring the entire design together.

Nothing shows the quality of a tattoo better than how it looks healed.

This neck rose started with the stencil placement, then the fresh tattoo, and finally the healed result. Really happy with how the shading settled and how clean the details stayed.

Had a lot of fun putting this Chucky piece together. We started with the references, worked through the drawing, and then brought it to life in black and grey.

Really happy with how the expression and details came out.
