Calin has been a tattoo artist for over 20 years, with the last 7 years spent as part of the Art & Soul Tattoo team. His signature style revolves around black and gray/color realism and surrealism, often incorporating fantasy/horror themes, with a special focus on epic landscapes and pop art.

Calin holds an education from the Art University and is professionally trained as a fine artist. He is highly passionate about working freehand, whether tackling an entire project that way or incorporating freehand elements into backgrounds and strokes. His stencils typically consist of a few lines, with the rest executed with skill and intuition honed over the years.

In addition to his freehand technique, Calin excels in portrait and figure tattooing. He is also an illustrator, often tattooing his own artwork onto people.
