Kaue uses contrast and precision as the foundations of Chicano compositions, lettering and black and grey work. His approach gives every element a clear role within the whole, from the typographic structure to the transitions in shading. Proposals are built around the message, the reference and the chosen placement, avoiding generic solutions. His artwork selection will show complete pieces alongside closer views that help visitors assess the legibility, depth and consistency of each design.

Mariano develops a repertoire that connects Japanese and oriental tattooing with old school and realism. In his compositions, scale, movement and the relationship between subject and background allow each piece to remain clear across different areas of the body. Every project is approached through visual narrative and anatomical adaptation, whether it is an extensive composition or a more contained work. The portfolio will bring together examples of these directions without mixing styles or attributing information that has not yet been verified.

Marcel explores American traditional, colour, Japanese and tribal tattooing through a direct, graphic point of view. His designs favour recognisable silhouettes, solid contrast and a palette that supports the readability of the piece. The starting point is always the client’s idea, translated into a composition that works at the chosen placement and scale. His gallery will show representative work from each speciality so that choosing a tattoo artist is based on visual affinity instead of generic promises.

Fernando works across watercolour, full colour, graphic blackwork and dotwork through compositions that make use of gesture and negative space. Colour may appear as fluid marks or in more defined areas, while black provides structure and contrast. Each proposal is adapted to the anatomy and character of the idea before deciding on technique or scale. His portfolio will show variety within these visual languages and enough detail to assess texture, line quality and overall balance.
