Sponsored Artist of the Month – Alberto Escobar
Alberto Escobar is a Spanish tattoo artist known for incredible black and grey work and his spin on the chicano style.
Alberto’s love of art stems from his graffiti past, where he would find himself tagging places all over the world.
After starting his tattooing career in Madrid, Spain, Alberto moved to Wales and joined the Raw Ink Tattoo Studio in Wrexham.
It was there he honed his black and grey skills and took his work up another notch, before deciding to open up his own studio, Black Gallery Tattoo, back in Madrid.
Over the years, Alberto has developed what you could call his signature style, blending black and grey chicano motifs with a red clown nose to make the tattoos pop and add an extra splash of colour.
Presently, you can find Alberto guesting at some of the best tattoo studios around, including Pxa Body Art in Spain and Hustler’s Parlour in the USA.
He’s also won a host of awards at conventions for his stunning tattoos. Most recently, he claimed ‘Best Black & Grey’ at both the Deauville Tattoo Festival in France and Ink Mania in Belgium.
Alberto uses various tattoo supplies from Killer Ink Tattoo to create his incredible work, including Hustle Butter Deluxe and Skin 2 Paper.
