Billie Luo
Tattoo Artist - Bedford
Born and raised in Shanghai, influenced deeply by a mother who professionally illustrated iconic 90s anime like Dragon Ball and Saint Seiya, my artistic journey began early with a pencil and endless sketches. To me, tattooing—whether realism or abstract, large or small—is ultimately about taste, vision, and flowing naturally with the human canvas. My specialty is black-and-grey realism infused with abstract elements and subtle oriental flair. I particularly love freehanding designs directly onto the body, enhancing each tattoo’s organic harmony with its wearer.
