I started my tattoo career in 2014 the south of France. I had just graduated from an animation school when my drawing teacher, who was also a tattoo artist, offered me an apprenticeship. In October 2015, I moved to London with the goal of putting myself out there, continuing to learn, and pushing myself to improve. In 2018, I decided to take that approach even further. I wanted to travel as much as possible, guest spotting at different shops to continue learning from other artists. With the support of my wife, that’s exactly what we did. Over the next two years, I had the privilege of meeting some amazing artists and working on increasingly exciting projects. Just before COVID, we returned to our hometown, where we opened a private studio and continued to guest spot occasionally. After three years, I found myself craving a new adventure. That’s when I came across an Instagram post from The Raven and The Wolves (Carlos Torres’s shop) announcing they were looking for new artists. I applied, and shortly after, they reached out to let me know they loved my work and wanted to discuss a possible position. In 2023, my wife and I have officially made Long Beach our home, and I’m proud to be part of the amazing team at The Raven and The Wolves.
