In the begining...

   ...it was nothing, until I was born on 12.11.1975 in Iasi - Romania. And if you are about to say: "aaa, it's in ..." let me mention that Iasi is not in Transylvania, but in Moldova, the eastern side of Romania beyond the Carpathians (though my wife is from Transylania and she never saw a wherewolf, beside me...). And yes, my country is a very "hystorical" and full of misticism one.
   I studied art (graphics) at the "Octav Bancila" highschool (1990-1994) in my hometown and then I continued my studies at "George Enescu" belle-art University (1994-1999). I graduated in 1999, with a degree about tattoos of course.
  So - around 1994-'95 I started to dedicate my artistic efforts to tattooing and as a result I ended up appearing on the most important stations in Romania, TVR1 and ProTV, and the local newspapers. 1995 it is also the year I won the 1'st place at the "Quasar SF" art festival.
   In Romania it was quite a fuzz at that time to get or to give a tattoo and I got very soon all the attention I needed. So I also got my own bussines: a studio called "Gods of Tattoo".
   In december of 2002 I was on my way from Romania to Portugal, to honor a contract with the "El Diablo" studio: I was going to work for them - quite a deal!

And now...

   ..."El Diablo" became "Queen of Hearts". Since my arrival in Portugal I tattooed hundreds of customers and continuously perfected my art. Check out the "Awards" page for a short journey through my most apreciated works in contests. On the other hand, I love each piece of my work, so all are filled with my devoution, and hopefully we can call each one of them an accomplishment.
   For a while I was involved in projects with "Evil Angel Studio" (Charneca de Caparica) and "Clockwise Tattoo" (Lisbon), enlarging my artistical views. I'm looking forward to run into other projects with anyone interested (also involved in such activities).
   Recently I got nominated to design the poster for the first National Tattoo Convention in Lisbon. I am also one of the five members of the jury . The event took place in 25-27 november 2005. Been there?

The future...

   ...I hope for, is a good one for art, for tattoos, for you and me. It is not the prize we are after, but the thrill...

Something else...

   ...about about me... Hmmm, maybe that me and my brother are the leading members of the metal band "God" (please vsit the official website). We had a good scene in Romania: lots of people with a dark aura out there, quite a discography, good relations with the other bands, great gigs, thousands of legally distributed albums (a very rare case in the romanian underground). Greetings to all of you my romanian friends! Let's see around here... in Portugal... what will turn out to be for us.
   And please allow me to mention my wife Delia and son Odin. You two are the light of my life.
