Hi! My name is Alex, and I have ten years of experience in the tattoo industry. For me, tattooing is much more than just images on skin – it’s about the emotions a tattoo evokes in the client.
I work in many different styles, but my main focus is black & grey realism, where I emphasize strong contrast.
I also enjoy other styles and am completely open to clients’ own ideas. I believe that the best results are created together, when we combine my expertise with the client’s vision.
As I already mentioned, the most important thing in tattooing for me is the feeling the client experiences – that moment when the tattoo is finished and the final details are in place. A tattoo is not just an image – it’s a part of us, a reflection of how we see the world and ourselves.
Every time we choose a tattoo, we strengthen our own understanding of life, emotions, and our personal stories. Whether it’s a movie character, a portrait of a musician, or roses and skulls – these images aren’t meant for others, but for ourselves – a reminder of who we truly are.
A tattoo doesn’t need to have meaning for anyone else – we alone decide how we want to express the deepest essence of our soul. A tattoo may look like decoration, but in reality, it is 10,000% who we are. It is our hidden strength, our purpose, our path.
A tattoo is a way to gather the rare treasures of life – moments, emotions, and insights – that remind us we are not alone. They help us, protect us, and illuminate our path – reflecting the glow of the star under which we were born.
A bit about the equipment I use.
In recent years, tattoo equipment has developed significantly — especially in terms of comfort and safety for both the client and the artist. However, not all manufacturers invest equally in safety, so over the past ten years I’ve created my own list of trusted, high-quality brands.
In my work, I use the Cobra tattoo machine from Ink Machines. This device represents the latest technological advancements in the field and offers an excellent combination of precision, reliability, and most importantly — safety for both the client and the tattoo artist. It is a concrete example of the standard the entire industry has been striving toward for years.
I also use only the best inks and aftercare products that meet all EU quality and safety standards. The tattoo industry continues to evolve, but right now we’ve reached a level of quality where working is truly enjoyable — for both the artist and the client. I also have five years of experience working for a company that manufactures medical devices for intensive care and operating rooms. This gives me a strong reference point, and it helps me appreciate the importance of high hygiene and quality standards in tattooing as well.
I’ve aimed to equip myself with the best solutions the tattoo industry has to offer to ensure safety and comfort.
