not just ink

  My art speaks where words are unable to explain.

My name is Angel Marquez, i'm from Venezuela. In 2015 I moved to USA; Jerry Pipkins owner of Seventh Seal Tattoo Club in Panama City FL, had the chance to work at his shop, that’s were my black and grey work really took a great  spin, thanks to his advice and technique he helped me improve the quality of my work, it was a great opportunity to work with him and the wonderful crew of Seventh Seal, I will always be grateful and thankful for the opportunity he gave me. In 2018 i moved to Nashville, TN; this was the experience of a lifetime, being able to work at one of the most famous tattoo companies in the USA, Hart & Huntington.. 

July 2021 my new home in Knoxville is "Born This Way Body Arts"

My favorite style is black and gray realism, I always put my own spin on my designs, adding layers and textures to make them unique. I like meeting new people, getting to know them, customizing their ideas and personalizing the design to make it come to life.
