“This guy”

I’ve been tattooing for more than 30 years, and this craft has become my life’s work. My time in the United States Marine Corps and my career as a professional MMA fighter shaped the discipline, precision, and commitment I bring to every tattoo. I focus on creating work that stands the test of time—clean lines, solid color, and designs built to age well.

I work in American traditional, Japanese, blackwork, and tribal-inspired styles, with a strong appreciation for black and gray for its longevity. I’ve traveled to Japan eight times and have a deep respect for Buddhist culture and art, which continues to inspire my approach. I’m especially drawn to nature themes like trees and animals, but I’m always open to collaborating on your ideas.

To give each project the attention it deserves, I currently take on only a small number of clients each month. If you’re interested in working together, please reach out by email. oldblueink@gmail.com
