About Teo.
Teo came to tattooing from botanical illustration and still draws every sprig from life. The work is light, careful and sized to last.
Teo will happily talk you out of a design that is too small to age well, and into one you will still love in ten years.
Best for
- Fine-line florals and sprigs
- Small script in your own handwriting
- Tiny matching pieces
- Minimal line drawings
Not the best fit for
Big saturated color. Imani or Rafa will do it justice.

What clients said.

"Teo talked me into going a little bigger than I planned, and I'm glad. Six weeks later every line is still crisp. The touch-up check was free and took ten minutes."
Maya R. · Fine-line fern, forearm · September 2026 -
"My grandmother's handwriting, traced from a birthday card. Teo checked the size three times so the letters wouldn't close up. Perfect."
