About the Author

Tania Maia is a Brazilian fashion designer and graduate from Santa Marcelina University in Sao Paulo, Brazil. She left the fashion profession to become a full-time tattooist in 2014. She has participated three times in the New York Empire State Tattoo Expo in New York City and has traveled around the world as a guest artist in different studios. In January 2018 she opened her own studio, Forasteiros Ink, in Lima, Peru. She teaches a successful online course in digital tattoo design, specializing in blackwork.
     
El Rose began tattooing professionally in 2016. Her style is illustrative blackwork, with delicate linework and lots of stippling. El creates most of her tattoos freehand, drawing them directly onto the skin rather than using a stencil and using the contours of the body to influence the design.

After studying in the applied arts, product design and architecture sectors, he set up a workshop to experiment in illustration, design, sculpture, and glasswork.
