Since beginning his tattooing career as a teenager, Carlos has become one of the most recognizable and awarded artists in the industry over the last two decades. Mostly self taught, Carlos spent his early years working in a couple of different tattoo shops before building up both his skills and his portfolio at So. Cal Tattoo in San Pedro, CA. 

These days, Carlos is known for creating black and gray realism and surrealism work that you can recognize from across the room. His custom design process includes everything from hiring and photographing models to editing and eventually painting and/or tattooing each original art piece.
