SCRIPT · VENICE, LOS ANGELES
Quotes, names, dates, coordinates and calligraphy — from tiny wrist script to bold spine lettering, tattooed at The Venice Canvas in Venice, Los Angeles.
THE WORK
Lettering is unforgiving: spacing, letter size and line weight decide whether a quote still reads clearly years from now or slowly closes up. I set every script piece for its real size and placement, so the words fit the body instead of fighting it.
I tattoo script in many styles — clean serif and typewriter fonts, flowing cursive, bold lettering, vertical spine pieces and non-Latin scripts such as Korean and Arabic calligraphy.
Popular script requests: meaningful quotes, names and memorial dates, roman numerals, coordinates, matching words for couples and friends, and lettering combined with florals or fine line art.
QUESTIONS
Yes. Please send the exact text from a trusted source — ideally checked by a native speaker — and I’ll lay it out so the characters stay clear at your chosen size.
Absolutely. Send a font name or an example you like, and I’ll adjust spacing and size so it holds up as a tattoo, or suggest a lettering style that suits the placement.
