About Steph

I love connecting clients with the talisman of their lives- to be the Connector for you and your loves,laughters,asthetic,your stories- To me that is the best part of Tattooing. I believe that there are a multitude of styles and variations to express each individual idea,which is why I pride myself on being able to accommodate most any style of tattooing you could want. Tattooing is about storytelling and uniting personal desires, I love being the connector for you . Steph Tamez’s tattooing is beautifully executed, drawing on their vast knowledge of both traditional tattoo iconography and fine art, they blend illustrations, patterns and powerful symbolism into a tapestry of unique artistic identity. An openly queer artist with over 30 years experience, Tamez currently lives and works in NY's Lower Eastside at The Historic Daredevil Tattoo and at my private studio 1 hour from Grand Central to Hudson Valley.
