Carla del Ramo

Sometimes I tattoo, sometimes I paint and sometimes I draw.

Fine Arts graduate. I tattoo at Blava in Alicante and do guest spots in Madrid and Lyon.

Pieces

My style comes from painting: brushstrokes and compositions that follow the anatomy of each body.

Available designs

Designs from my flash sheets that I’d really love to tattoo. Pick one, try it on the body or on a photo of yourself and send it over.

Some are already taken, so I’ll let you know if yours is still free.

Drag the design over the body; drag anywhere else to turn the body. Tap the body to move the design there. Resize with the scroll wheel, by pinching or with the slider.

How I work

Before we start
We sit down and talk through the idea and any questions you have. I show you a few sizes and you can check it in the mirror as many times as you like.
The design
You bring it, I draw it for you, or you pick one of my available designs. We fine-tune it together on the day.
On the body
I want the piece to follow your anatomy and move with you. Sometimes I finish it by drawing straight onto the skin.
The time together
You being comfortable is almost as important as the tattoo itself. And there’s lots of chatting during sessions.
First tattoo
Lots of you have had your first one with me. Ask me anything you like beforehand.
Healed
My healed pieces are in my Instagram highlights, so you can see how they look over time.

Carla sits down with you before starting and shows you a few things… She shows you several sizes and gives you all the time in the world to look at yourself again and again.

I paint too

One of my favourite things about painting is that it always, always, always teaches me to let go.
