Max

is a non binary artist who’s has spent over 13 years tattooing and developing a distinctive illustrative style rooted in black & grey, with color accents. After 15 years living and working in NYC, including running their own private studio in Brooklyn for the past four years, they recently relocated to San Diego to begin a new chapter of their practice.

Their work draws from nature, mysticism, and personal symbolism, often blending organic elements with a slightly surreal, atmospheric edge. Max approaches tattooing as a collaborative process, creating a space where clients feel comfortable, seen, and supported in bringing their ideas to life.

Known for fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment, especially for queer and femme clients, their work is grounded in care, connection, and thoughtful design that holds up overtime.
