Hurricane Shane
Tattooer
Shane’s focuses on hand drawn tattoo flash and custom one off pieces large or small. Who’s work is as bold and unapologetic as the culture that inspires it. Drawing from the energy of heavy metal, the grit of horror cinema, and the traditions of both Japanese and American Tattooing, Shane creates pieces that are instantly recognizable for their intensity and individuality.
Luis Arias
Tattooer
I started my career with black and grey pieces, learning about Chicano styles, and mastering Prehispanic art work (Aztec, Mayan, etc.). I developed a fascination with history and culture. After 25 years of professionally tattooing, I am interested in doing conceptual and cultural art with very meaningful significance, tailored especially for each of my clients.
