Jose

My dude Jose comes from the Bronx to get his tattoos here. He a merchandiser for small grocery stores. He wanted an angel theme on his arm. So I told him I could make one up but bring me your idea of a angel. Lo and behold he brought pictures of the Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo. At first I was apprehensive like "hmm that's a lot" and "is this going to fit right on his arm?". He said he didn't like the whole painting just certain parts so I designed his arm with those ideas. Check it out. I like the idea of shading that can make an object look old so I had fun doing this.

My Skills are Better than Yours!

Featured - Earl

 One of my many masterpieces. The homie Earl wanted something to cover up his old tattoos while also giving a modern spin on his faith. Like it?

**Special Note: I can cover old or unwanted tattoos and I can also correct mistakes. However, you would be a happier person if you just come to me first.**

@VanessaMullings

New Features

 I get a lot of guys questioning whether I do tattoos on guys because my portfolio has a lot of women pieces. The answer of course is YES but let's face it, dudes all want the same thing. "Family First", "Loyalty" or the "Rep" tat which in my case means every and anything to do with New York. Example: the Statue of Liberty, Yankee symbols galore etc. Fellas, the truth is the ladies are far more interesting to work on. They actually do research or have an idea of what they want. They dont haggle about price as much as you think and last but not least, they take the pain way better! So Dudes Man Up!

OneStroke Cameo - @FormatNy

While scrolling through the Format site, I realized that the shop made another cameo. Below is a copy of their post Stalley Ft. Harsh Ave. Also, click that OneStroke link. It will lead you to the good people of EightFourArea and all of the features that they did on OneStroke.

We Had the Pleasure to have a quick Chat with the Homey “Stalley” at the OneStroke Tattoo Shop, but take note about his new Single “Harsh Ave” Which was inspired by his Block.
