From near perfect manga panel replication to full body irezumi, Vel has perfected the art of turning skin into a masterpiece. After many years of creating some incredible pieces, Vel decided to open his own shop in 2024.


Sophie

It takes talent to blend the sweet with the spooky and no one captures this better than Sophie. With a distinctive style all her own, she has managed to create some of the most iconic pieces ever to come out of a tattoo shop. Her balance between striking beauty, a cutting edge, and a little bit of silly have helped many a client embrace their inner goddess.


Benney

With color saturation that appears almost painted on and form flowing pieces that feel organic, Benney is able to breathe new life into familiar favorites through traditional techniques.


Jaccy

To seamlessly meld the beauty of mystical symbols with the clean lines of cyberpunk visuals, you need a master with a steady hand and an eye for detail. Meet Jaccy the Queen of Cybersigilsm. Whether you are seeking an ethereal air that transcends reality or the sharp gaze of hyper reality, Jaccy is the perfect guide for your next tattoo journey.


Anthony

Mighty is the hand that wields the needle! A skilled, gentle hand and a passion for self expression unite to create the world’s most rad piercing artist, Anthony!
