I have been a fan of master tattoo artist Nazareno Tubaro since long before I first met him at the Buenos Aires convention way back in 2004, but I realized today that he’s gotten very little coverage here on ModBlog, even though he hugely deserves it. He was an early innovator in the world of neotribal and modern blackwork, and hundreds if not thousands of tattoo artists around the world have drawn inspiration from (and sometimes outright copied) his style. So today I want to share with you just a couple recent pieces that struck me as particularly beautiful, but I encourage you to explore nazareno-tubaro.com — hell, I encourage you to get on an airplane, show up on his doorstep, and beg him to decorate your empty skin!

BME/News and Modblog highlight only a small fraction of what
really amazing work in black…never see nothing like this before.
Shannons back? I haven’t visited this site in years. Glad to see you are still at it!
Awesome black work, really nice!
Love the work on the hands
Love both but especially the front !
