With 30 years of experience as an artist, Hiroki is able to bring your perfect tattoo to life.

Hiroki brings his unique experience as a manga artist who has published comics in Japan since 1994. In 2023, his 12-part series “Backstage in New York” became a TV show — with former action star Shinji Takeda starring as a drag queen, “Cool Mint.”

He also brings decades of fine art experience, with work hanging in galleries throughout the United States and Japan and featured in art fairs in New York, Tokyo, Berlin and Basel, Switzerland.

Since moving into more full-time tattoo work, he looks forward to sharing and co-creating original works in ink.
