Description

In this issue meet the cover girl Sydney Dyer, tattoo artist from Calgary, Canada, owner of The Brindleroom tattoo shop and the first Canadian contestant on the latest season of Ink Master.

We go to Leeds, UK, to visit Sway, eclectic and multifaceted, English artist whose style has everything that has ever touched him from every encounter, experience or contact with cultures and traditions to which he feels spiritually drawn.

Marina Goncharova is an eclectic tattooist, who blends her “base” of American Traditional and Japanese with experimentation and collaboration with other colleagues who push her in the direction of Tribal Black.

Nyoung is part of the Kodzunak Tattoo Shop in Seoul and what impressed us about him was his style which is all about two dominant colours: black and yellow, a contrast in aesthetic terms as well as of joy and darkness, expressed through simple designs tied to Oriental custom and tradition.

We caught up with Daniel Velasco, originally from Columbia and now in Spain, and talked about his Neo Traditional with a Surrealist twist and his elaborate skin creations into a sort of Surrealist Comic.

We go to Las Vegas to meet Daniel Rocha owner of Seven Tattoo Studio, a community that revolves around the Black and Grey style, the desire to give their best as artists, each with their own particular inclinations.

See the Portfolio dedicated to Deco Dream Suite a visual researcher, creator of portraits which border on the surreal thanks to amusing details. Her works are all about showcasing diversity, which she highlights with vibrant colours and a surreal atmosphere.

Robert Drew goes by name of Roberto Diaz Arte del Caos. His paintings are a macabre, dark chaos whose protagonists are deformed in the face, doubled, surrealistic and macabre.

Meet Suki, the bubbly English girl, model and cosplayer mad about art and Japanese anime.

And much more…
