THE FINISHED PIECE COMES FIRSTThe work
comes first.
Xiva Tattoo focuses on illustrative black and grey, with experience across a range of styles. Every piece is developed around its subject, the placement and what will make it work as a tattoo.
The practice is shaped by over ten years of tattooing, with roots in Barcelona and time spent working in Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Germany.
The aim stays simple: thoughtful composition, solid execution and a finished tattoo that holds up beyond the drawing.
