@K.j_tattoos
Meet Kam, they’re not your average groovy goth; they’ve got an incredible talent. When they pick up that tattoo machine, they create a visual masterpiece from everything dark, dead, and scary, along with flora and fauna. They’ve been tattooing for three years, and on their days off, when they aren’t creating forever art on your skin, they’re piercing bodies.
Favourite Movie: Mirror Mask

@tattoos.jdcastro
Originally from Colombia, Juan brings over 14 years of tattooing experience to Studio 278. His portfolio spans continents, styles, and serious skill — making him one of the most versatile artists in the game. Whether you’re after bold traditional, fine line, realism, black and grey, or something totally unique, Juan has the eye and precision to make it pop.
His work is instantly recognisable — clean, powerful, and packed with creativity. With a deep-rooted passion for art and an obsession with detail, Juan’s tattoos speak louder than words.
Jozef
@Etched_in_graphite
At 38, Jozef left behind the 9–5 grind and dove headfirst into the world of tattooing — and he hasn’t looked back since. As an apprentice at Studio 278, Jozef is already making waves with his bold commitment, sharp illustrative style, and a work ethic that speaks for itself.
From clean linework and blackwork to nature-inspired designs, his pieces reflect a steady hand and a strong creative foundation. He’s in the studio early, soaking up every detail, pushing his technique, and constantly evolving under the guidance of our senior artists.
Jozef is proof that it’s never too late to chase your passion — and he’s just getting started.
harry
@hazidtattoo
Harry is the definition of an artist who lets his work do the talking. With over seven years of experience in the game, he’s built a name for himself through clean, high-impact pieces that blur the line between art and obsession.
Whether it’s dark realism, bio-organic horror, surrealism, or pop culture portraits that hit with intensity — there isn’t a style Harry can’t bend to his will. His work has a signature energy: bold, intricate, and always unforgettable.
Originally inspired by obscure and experimental art, Harry made the leap into tattooing after encouragement from close mates. Since then, he’s gone from apprentice to full-blown weapon, attending tattoo expos and taking on massive collab pieces with fellow senior artists.
Looking for something intense, detailed, and out of the box? Harry’s your guy.
masa
@masa_ink_
Quiet, focused, and relentlessly talented, Masa is the kind of artist who lets her work speak for itself. Whether she’s building bold geometric compositions or layering soft realism into floral sleeves, her style blends precision with creativity in a way that stops you mid-scroll.
Known around the studio as “the silent assassin” (a nickname that stuck for a reason), Masa brings serious dedication to every piece she creates. With headphones on and pencil in hand, she’s in her element — sketching, refining, and tattooing with a calm intensity that shows in every clean line and smooth shade.
antonia
@wrathbone.tattoo
With over four years of tattooing under her belt, Antonia has earned a rep for her clean execution, dark edge, and fearless creativity. Whether she’s bringing to life a full-colour frog wizard or a fine-line portrait with horror movie vibes, her style is bold, expressive, and always evolving.
A natural storyteller through ink, Antonia’s tattoos are as sharp as her eye for detail — and her work has built her a fiercely loyal following that keeps coming back for more.
When she’s not tattooing, you’ll probably find her binging horror or true crime documentaries and passionately debating the superior form of potato.
Antonia specialises in black and grey realism, horror and pop culture pieces, and bold illustrative work — with a growing love for neo-traditional and colour realism.
