TATTOO studio of Monterey Ca

1974​, Monterey Bay Native
​​
From a young age, I knew I wanted to make art my career. I was inspired by nature, fine art, custom cars and colorful lowrider culture. I honed my skills in spray-painting, photography, drawing on canvas and most of all drawing on live flesh. After assisting at an auto body shop, I realized people admired the custom colors my hands would correlate together.
At 831 INK Tattoo Studio, I use my experience and skills as a artist to create beautiful works of body art that last a lifetime. I'm passionate about all art forms and specialize in creating custom tattoos that are tailored to my clients' personalities.
​
I am open to new artistic projects of all sorts. Please feel free to contact me any ideas, positive suggestions or QUOTES
