Boris

Studying at an arts school in Bulgaria, Cheltenham resident Boris was surrounded by talented artists, and his passion for drawing flourished. It was when he was introduced to tattooing, he decided to focus on this new journey. With a strong drawing foundation, Boris seamlessly transitioned into tattooing. Boris’s love for realism grew during his art school years, and he was determined to incorporate it into his tattoo work. In 2013, a year before graduating, he began his tattooing career, which has continued ever since. Boris spent his initial six years tattooing in Bulgaria and, in 2019, decided to relocate to the UK. Along the way, he made industry friends, attended workshops, secured guest spots, and shared knowledge, humbled by his journey’s enriching encounters. Boris now resides at our Cheltenham studio as one of our resident realism artists..
