Joaquín was interested in drawing and art from an early age. At age 16 he first encountered tattoos and has been in love ever since. So much so, that he decided to start tattooing his friends.

Since then, in addition to his studies and work, his free time has revolved around tattooing. To learn how to tattoo he started working at Rebel Tattoo, belonging to his friend & artist, Jose Manfredi.

“If you are happy in your work, you will be happy in your life.”

Joaquín started tattooing in the style of Black & Grey, until he attended the London Tattoo Convention and discovered Traditional American artists. Since then, he has developed his own style incorporating Traditional tattooing with his signature colour palette & super clean linework. 

Joaquín advises to always follow your passion and think carefully about what you want to spend the rest of your life doing - because that's the only way to be happy.
