THE JOURNEY FROM A SMALL ISLAND TO THE HEART OF NEW YORK CITY

Known for his attention to detail, smooth shading, and refined compositions, Stevo has built a global clientele, with collectors traveling from around the world to be tattooed by him.
Now based in New York City, Stevo works out of Monolith Studio in Brooklyn, alongside some of the most respected artists in the industry. Each session is exclusive, private, and fully customized. Designed to deliver not just a tattoo, but a transformative experience.
Beyond tattooing, Stevo is expanding into product development, branding, and mentorship, pushing the boundaries of what it means to be an artist in today’s world. His work goes beyond aesthetics. It's about creating timeless pieces that tell stories and leave a lasting impact.
