The Studio Style
Graphic illustrative tattooing sits between classic flash and fine art. The work leans on strong silhouettes, confident linework, and color that stays honest as it heals. Brian has been tattooing for more than six years and draws every design himself, so nothing on your skin comes off a stock sheet.
The studio takes a small number of projects at a time. That keeps every appointment focused and every design personal. If you want a piece that looks like it was made for you, because it was, start a request and tell us the idea.
