Tattoo Artist: Roman Abrego
If I had to use one word to describe the tattoo work of Roman Abrego I would say “vibrant”. His color work has a very realistic feel to it. He is able to achieve a wet paint look to some elements of his tattoo. The colors are outstanding and remind me a bit of oil paintings. Abrego’s is able to make flesh look true to life and his eyes - you can swear they have moist sheen to them.
He began his career by working out of his house but eventually worked his way into a shop and worked along some very talented artists.
These days, Abrego owns and works out of his own shop which is located in Yucaipa, California. I highly recommend visiting his Facebook page where you can see a lot more of his work. He has a large amount of biomechanaical style work. If was very difficult to narrow down the 2 examples I used on this page. There were so many examples of his work that I admired.
