About Miles
Art that connects.
Stories that last.
I'm a micro-realism artist based out of Chicago. I love tattooing intricate compositions that move with the body. I maintain a commitment to design all my tattoos by hand, to achieve a product that doesn't just sit on the skin, but flows with your anatomy. I want to prioritize the feelings that made you fall in love with your idea, to give you a piece that tells a story. The process I enjoy a more meticulous process that ensures the highest quality possible. By hand drawing my designs I can ensure a piece has gone through multiple iterations until I settle on what works best for your body. Intentional practice Taking the time to draw continues to deepen my knowledge of artistic concepts. This ensures that I continue to improve and provide the high quality work you expect. Quality first I got into the tattoo industry to create authentically, not to maximize profits. By taking my time with my process, I can ensure that quality is never compromised.
