Mira Vale
Botanical blackwork
Mira builds from specimens, field drawings, and the movement of the placement. Her work balances broad black shapes with patient texture.
Drawn from nature, built for skin.
Private studio / by appointment
Skin keeps the record.
Custom tattooing built from drawing, reference, and conversation. No repeated work. No rushed decisions.

Tomás Rook
Engraving + ornamental
Tomás studies printer ornaments, folk symbols, and historic engraving. He redraws their structure so it reads clearly on a moving body.
Pattern is language. Structure makes it hold.
03
Aya North
Fine line + quiet geometry
Aya works with reduced marks, measured spacing, and small shifts in symmetry. The result is deliberate without feeling rigid.
Less to say. More to mean.
BP—PROCESS / IMPOSITION GUIDE
A mark starts before the machine.
Every project moves through the same clear proofing sequence.
- 01
Look
We listen, study your references, and consider placement.
- 02
Draw
Your artist builds one focused direction from scratch.
- 03
Refine
We tighten scale, balance, flow, and legibility together.
- 04
Tattoo
We work with focus, explain aftercare, and verify the finish.
BP—CONSULTATION / PLATE 05
Bring the thought. Leave room for the drawing.
Tell us what keeps returning to you, where it may live, and which artist’s work feels closest. A conversation comes before any commitment.
