Brucie’s tattoo style is ‘contemporary old school,’ pairing bold black lines with bright color combinations and a modern aesthetic. The road to tattooing was winding and interesting, including a four year stint as an electrical apprentice working on cranes, three years repairing espresso machines in Brighton, England and several years doing production work for tv, movies and music in Richmond, Virginia. Brucie joins us as a tattooer fresh off of an apprenticeship with Commonwealth Tattoo Gallery in Norfolk, Virginia. We’d like to welcome Brucie to the Sparrowhawk family. I usually find satisfaction in whatever challenges me to become better. Omen says, “Black and grey Chicano tattooing is what has inspired my style. Leans towards fine-line black and grey tattooing. Previous studios: Black Rosary, Forever Loyal, Sacred Heartįavorite artist(s): Anil Gupta. Having a diverse set of clients is a priceless experience and one that has helped me to grow in many ways as an artist and a person.” When he’s not tattooing at SparrowHawk Studio, he can likely be found petting his loyal companion, Chucho. He says, “I like to connect with my clients through humor and sharing stories. Omen’s down-to-earth demeanor earned him a loyal clientele that has followed him from shop to shop through the years, something he sees as a benefit of the career he has chosen. He apprenticed under Danny Cruz at Black Rosary Art (now Studio 4154) before moving on to work alongside our own Dusty Cramer at Sacred Heart. Omen always admired the idea of artwork that is long lasting but also frozen in time, honoring a specific moment or feeling. The Forest Park, Georgia native drew his early creative inspiration from his artist Mom, Zen-Master Bob Ross and Hanna-Barbara cartoons. Omen has admired tattoos since he was a kid admiring the faded pinups on his grandfather.
