Tony’s passion for tattooing began with flipping through tattoo magazines, where he first saw the endless possibilities of art on skin. After completing his apprenticeship in Racine, WI, he dedicated himself fully to the craft and has now been tattooing professionally for 19 years.
Specializing in black and grey realism, Tony prides himself on being versatile and capable of working across all tattoo styles. His artistic philosophy blends fine detail with personal expression, creating tattoos that reflect both his technical skill and his clients’ stories. Whether it’s realism, illustrative work, or large-scale custom pieces, Tony brings precision and artistry to every project.
He draws inspiration from his clients, nature, and personal experiences, as well as from master artists like Jean Francois Millet and Leng Jun. Among his proudest pieces is a full Beauty and the Beast black and grey sleeve, a work that showcases his ability to merge intricate detail with storytelling through tattooing.
Currently tattooing at Club Tattoo in Mesa, Tony values the family-like atmosphere of the studio and the collaborative energy of his team. Outside of tattooing, he stays active with soccer, enjoys riding motorcycles, and above all, is a dedicated family man.
