Ink That Tells Your Story

With over a decade of experience, I create bold, timeless tattoos in styles ranging from traditional to realistic. Whether you want a fresh design or a flawless cover-up, every piece is crafted with precision, creativity, and care.

About me

Born and working in Athens, Greece, I have been tattooing since 2010, mastering a wide range of styles including American Traditional, Biomech, Black and Grey, Illustrative Black Work, Illustrative Color, and Realistic Portraits. Comfortable with most tattooing styles, I have a strong preference for traditional imagery and themes, creating bold, bright, and solid tattoos. I am also highly skilled in cover-ups and reworks of existing tattoos, ensuring clients leave with artwork they are proud of. Alongside tattooing, I am a trained acrylic color painter, bringing an artistic eye and precision to every piece I create.

The stories behind the ink — straight from my clients.

Vagelis is a true artist. His attention to detail is incredible, and he made sure every line was perfect. The final result was even better than I imagined

From the moment I sat down, I noticed how spotless and organized his work area was. Every tool was prepared with care, and Vagelis worked with precision, making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process

I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted, but Vagelis worked with me patiently, adapting the design until it felt just right. His setup was clean, organized, and 100% professional.

He really listens. I came in with a very specific vision, and Vagelis respected every detail while adding his own artistic touch. The end result was exactly what I had hoped for — and more.
