Tattoos By Bug

A queer, disabled artist working in Providence, RI.

About the Artist

Growing up I was a very sickly kid which led to a lot of time in isolation, because of this I regularly turned to art as a form of expression and eventually it became a skill I was determined to improve.

In early 2022 I started my journey as a tattoo apprentice at a street shop taking walk in clients. This experience pushed me out of my comfort zone which in turn helped me to make better tattoos.

At this point I am finding my own personal style. I love to draw/paint/tattoo all things related to nature as well as images with gothic or horrific themes. My current art is influenced by black work, illustrative and traditional style tattoos. Since my apprenticeship I have been intently improving my craft as a creative tattooist. Being able to work with such wonderful clients and friends to create something they will be proud to wear is something I take much pride in. I am incredibly thankful to all of those who trust me throughout this process.

With Love,

Bug
