Oriental tattoo is associated in most with bright colors and large-scale works covering almost the entire human body.

Tattoo artist Juvel Vazquez, better known on the social media as FIBS, took a slightly different path.

Started tattooing in 2002, he was swept by a passion for Japanese tattoo. After years of development of tattooing technique and artistic skills, he eventually came to its black and gray representation.

Despite the lack of color, his work looks amazing! Through the use of a black & gray palette, FIBS works with contrast in its original form, combining deep black shade with lighter elements.

The multilevelness and detailing of tattoos not only does not suffer from «discoloration», but also acquires a new volume.

Juvel Vazquez considers the tattoo itself as piece of art that cannot be separated from other forms of visual arts, and in our humble opinion, he confirms his words with every new tattoo.
