Ink & Steel

Ink & Steel is a tattoo studio in Seminole, Florida, built around a family of dedicated artists with deep roots in the craft. The lead artist began tattooing in New York in the early nineties before relocating to Florida in 1995, where he built a loyal clientele tattooing on Madeira Beach. That experience led to opening his own shop in 2000, bringing longtime clients along while steadily growing a new customer base. He brings a formal education in art along with engineering and mechanical drawing to his work, giving his tattooing a precise, technical foundation alongside creative vision.

The studio's specialties include custom tattoo design, tribal work, fine line pieces, new school styles, and cover-ups, reflecting a range that spans bold traditional-inspired imagery to detailed, contemporary linework. The artist's brother, who also holds a formal art education, joined the shop as a second tattooer, reinforcing a collaborative, family-driven approach to the work. Clients can view portfolios of past tattoos through the studio's galleries, showcasing the breadth of custom and cover-up projects completed over the years. Rooted in craftsmanship and hands-on artistry, this Seminole studio continues a tattooing tradition that began decades ago on Florida's Gulf coast.
