02 / About and process
Brayan.
“Always giving the best in each tattoo. This is something that completely changed my life.”
His story
In 2019 he was finishing his university practices, never imagining that seven years later he would be making a living from art.
He became the first in his family to be a barber and a tattoo artist, and the first to leave his country to chase a dream that once felt far away. He fell for Chicano art while living in Mexico, a style he says he could tattoo every single day.
Now tattooing in Dallas, he works in black and gray: realism, high contrast, large scale. Sleeves, leg sleeves, chest pieces, portraits and faith pieces and pieces built from the client's own idea.
“There are no tricks, no shortcuts, just practice.”
November 2026
His first expo in three years of tattooing: the Longhorn State Tattoo Expo, three days at the booth meeting other artists. In his words, one of the best.
How a piece comes together.
- 01
Send your idea
Text 817-889-6375 with what you want, where it goes and any reference photos. The eye and clock piece here started as the client's own idea.
- 02
Personalized consultation
He talks it through with you by text and gives you a quote.
- 03
The design
The piece is drawn up as a design before it touches skin.
- 04
The stencil
The design goes on as a stencil, the first line of the tattoo.
- 05
Sessions
Large work is built across sessions. In his words, each arm needs a different number of sessions depending on the size and the level of detail. One sleeve here took three sessions, one forearm piece about eight hours. “I take my time while tattooing.”
- 06
Healed
He shows his work healed as well as fresh.
