👻 what I’ve tattooed so far👻

I’ve never promoted myself as a tattooist but still tattooing has become a significant part of my life. I started doing it by accident circa 2014. I didn’t really obsess over tattooing per se but enjoyed drawing literally with any medium and the fact that you can make an artwork for someone and they will carry it with them (most likely) forever mesmerizes me till this day. I’d quickly refused stick and poke and bought my first cheap tattoo machine and have been self-teaching since then. Gradually adding colors to tattoos made the process even more enjoyable.

As of now I’m pretty confident about my technique. Style wise I’d say I mostly lean towards neo-traditional because I like it when tattoos are durable, bold and readable, but at the same time I admire clever decisions, innovative aesthetic choices and personalized style. Hopefully one day when I fully get my life on the right track I’ll make tattoo flashes and sketches and will start self-promoting as a tattooist, but now it’s more like a side job and a way to capture and create memories:’)

Everything below is in chronological order. These aren’t all the tattoos I did, but the ones that are somewhat interesting. I’ve never used someone else’s sketches.
