Rodrigo is a talented yet humble, dyed in the wool tattooer and he truly lives for his craft.  Rodrigo is extremely focused on earlier traditional Japanese styles of tattooing.  He creates large sleeve, leg sleeve and full back and bodysuit tattoo designs that begin as hopeful designs for sale and end up fully realized on skin!    If you’re looking for serious Japanese work, Rodrigo is your man!  Do you know that Rodrigo also does TEBORI STYLE!  Ask him about it! He is also a very well rounded artist who is adept at handling anything.  Rodrigo is not afraid to work on your skyline or traditional banger and beautifully translates the Japanese qualities into American tractional tattoos.

When he’s not tattooing Rodrigo is actively training in Jiu Jitsu and taking care of his beautiful daughter.
