Guest spots.

Alongside the studio in Almagro, I travel to tattoo in other cities. That is what a guest spot is: a few days working away from home, with the designs settled before I leave and a counted number of appointments — as many as fit the trip, and not one more. These are the cities I go to.

How it works

Before you write
  1. 01

    What it is

    A guest spot is a visit: for a few days I tattoo in another city instead of in my studio in Almagro. The work is the same — illustrative microrealism and fineline, the same hand and the same machine — what changes is that the window is short and the address is confirmed along with the appointment.

    The dates decide everything

    A trip is a handful of days, not a year of calendar. When a city has confirmed dates they are on that city's page; when it does not, the page says so instead of inventing them. Slots that open up also go up on my Instagram stories.

    The design comes before the flight

    There is no room to start drawing on the day of the session: we settle it over messages weeks ahead and I land with the design done. Which is why it is worth writing the week the dates appear rather than the week before the trip, when there is no drawing time left.

    What to send me

    Your idea in two or three lines, the placement, a rough size in centimetres and whatever references you have. With that I can tell you whether it fits the days I will be there, and come back with a quote for that piece.

Anywhere else

Your city is not on the list?

Write anyway. Trips get built in large part out of the messages that arrive: if there are several of you in the same city, say so in the same message and tell me which months would suit you.
