Hello, I'm Abraham, and I live in San Jose del Monte Bulacan philipines. Art has been a cornerstone of my existence, guiding me through life and shaping my identity. I have embraced this passion and translated it into my profession as a tattoo artist, where I get to etch stories, emotions, and dreams onto the skin of my clients. Beyond tattooing, I also freelance as a tattoo designer, crafting unique and personalized designs that reflect the individuality of those who wear them. My journey in the world of tattoos is intertwined with my love for music, which fuels my creativity and provides a constant source of inspiration.

Early Life and Artistic Inclinations

Growing up in Bulacan, a city rich in culture and diversity, I was exposed to a myriad of artistic expressions from a young age. The vibrant street art, the traditional crafts, and the contemporary art scenes all played a role in nurturing my artistic inclinations. My fascination with art started as a child, where I would spend hours drawing, painting, and experimenting with various forms of creative expression. This early love for art was not just a hobby; it was a calling that would eventually define my career path.

Discovering the World of Tattoos

My journey into the world of tattoos began during my teenage years. I was captivated by the idea of using the human body as a canvas and the permanence of the art form. Tattoos, to me, represented a unique blend of artistry and storytelling. Each design carried a personal narrative, a piece of history, or a profound meaning for the person wearing it. This realization ignited a passion within me to explore tattooing as a medium of expression.

I started apprenticing under experienced tattoo artists, learning the intricacies of the craft. The process was demanding, requiring not only artistic skill but also technical proficiency and a deep understanding of hygiene and safety protocols. Over time, I honed my skills, mastering various tattooing techniques and styles. From traditional and neo-traditional designs to realism, blackwork, and watercolor tattoos, I sought to diversify my repertoire to cater to a wide range of client preferences.

The Art of Tattoo Design

While tattooing allows me to bring designs to life on skin, my freelance work as a tattoo designer provides another avenue for creative expression. Tattoo design involves understanding the client's vision, personality, and story to create a custom piece that resonates with them. It's a collaborative process that requires excellent communication skills and the ability to translate abstract ideas into concrete designs.

As a freelance tattoo designer, I work with clients from all over the world, helping them conceptualize their dream tattoos. This aspect of my work is incredibly fulfilling, as it allows me to connect with diverse individuals and contribute to their self-expression journeys. Each design is a new challenge, pushing me to think outside the box and continuously evolve my artistic style.

The Role of skateboard ingMy Creative Process
I'm an avid skateboarder who finds joy and freedom in the art of skating. Since I first stepped on a skateboard, it has become more than just a hobby; it's a way of life. I love the exhilaration of cruising through the streets, the thrill of landing new tricks, and the sense of community within the skateboarding world. Each ride is an opportunity to challenge myself, push my limits, and experience the world from a unique perspective. Skateboarding fuels my adventurous spirit and keeps me constantly striving for improvement, both on and off the board.

A Day in My Life

A typical day in my life is a blend of art, client interactions, and continuous learning. My mornings often start with sketching new ideas or refining existing designs. This quiet time is essential for me to explore my creativity without distractions. Once I'm satisfied with the sketches, I prepare for my tattoo sessions

Tattooing is an intimate process that requires a great deal of focus and precision. Each session is a unique experience, as I work closely with clients to ensure their vision is realized. The trust that clients place in me is both humbling and motivating. It's a responsibility I take seriously, ensuring that every tattoo is executed with the highest level of skill and care.

In the evenings, I often find time to relax and unwind by listening to music and exploring new artistic techniques. This continuous practice helps me stay at the forefront of tattoo art trends and keeps my skills sharp. I also use this time to work on freelance design projects, collaborating with clients remotely to create custom tattoo designs.

These are my works from my years of tattooing. These designs are based on the requests of my clients.
