I am a dedicated and passionate tattoo artist with over 15 years of professional experience in the tattoo industry. I specialize in colored realism and black and gray realism, creating detailed, lifelike designs that reflect each client’s vision. I also have strong skills in editorial cartooning, realistic oil painting, and poster design, which I use to bring creative and artistic depth to my tattoo work.

I currently run my own shop, "DON TATTOO studio, at Malaybalay City, where I provide custom tattoo designs, consultations, and high-quality tattoo services. Over the years, I’ve worked with various studios across the Philippines and earned multiple awards in tattoo competitions. I’m highly focused, creative, and take pride in delivering clean, meaningful, and professional work for every client.
