Rowell Alfelor, the shop owner, kickstarted his artistic journey on the streets of the Bay Area as a graffiti artist when he was young. His love for art drove him to enroll in the Academy of Art University, where he focused on illustration. Following graduation, Rowell delved into product design, graphic art, character creation, and UI design for small gaming companies in San Francisco. Eventually, Rowell and his family relocated to Colorado, where he embarked on a tattoo apprenticeship in the Springs. His remarkable talent as an artist led him to establish Urban Element Tattoo just a year later. Rowell's expertise spans a wide array of styles, and you can explore his diverse portfolio for more information.
Hi, my name is Nickolas Arroyo, I was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley of California. I grew up with a passion for art which led me to an apprenticeship at Generation 8, a busy shop in Hollywood, shortly after I became a full-time artist there. Then I ended up making my way towards a new shop called Tribute tattoo in West Hills of California, and had the pleasure of becoming friends and mentored by Jamie Lee Parker. After that I made my way to Colorado for new opportunities, more nature and a positive life. I currently work at Urban Element Tattoo where it has brought some of the best Tattoo years of my life so far. The shop is amazing, positive, friendly, and inviting. I love meeting new clients, connecting with their stories, and bringing their ideas to life. For more information on my appointment process please contact me by submitting a form on my artist page.
Wassupp! My name is Savannah. I recently moved to Colorado from the East Coast. I enjoy anything creepy, elegant, or gothic. If you come to see me bring all the sarcasm and dark humor. Also if you’re gonna be late, please bring me a coffee. My partner @cierahightattoos and I run a double team discount, so if you’re brave enough to get two tattoos at once, we’ll give you 20% off both
Yes, my last name is actually High, yes, I will totally smoke weed with you. I specialize in illustrative tattoos, mostly black or black and red. I love tattooing all things spooky, and occasionally nerdy, but really, whatever your heart desires. I also trade oddities and such for tattoos, if you have any extra bones laying around (also if you’re a massage therapist hit me the fuck up). I like trains · ACAB · Hail Daddy Satan Come get stabbed!
