About Ruben Barahona Tattoo Artist

Ruben Barahona works from a private, appointment-only studio in New York that doubles as a painting studio, so clients can take in his wider creative practice. He has more than a decade of experience and has taken award-winning work to conventions across the USA and Europe, travelling coast to coast and abroad, including to Spokane, Washington. He specializes in color and black and grey realism, including portraits, and takes on custom pieces in horror and dark art, comics and music themes, with a painterly approach drawn from his academic background. Every piece begins with a conversation about the client's story and personality, and appointments are highly recommended. Consultations are offered. Rated 5 from 62 Google reviews, all of them five stars.
