Alan Padilla - Tattoo Artist

As a tattoo artist, Alan Padilla is a respected member of the Sullen art collective and produces exceptional designs for Sullen clothing as well as his own personal artwork. Alan Padilla’s influences are dominated by his exceptional love of tattoo and he started working with tattoo artists at a young age, learning the ropes from the best in the trade. Now an incredibly skilled tattoo artist in his own right, Alan Padilla works from his tattoo studio in California and co owns the Timeline Gallery with two other tattoo artists including fellow Sullen art member Carlos Torres. The Timeline Gallery offers some of the best work from notable tattoo artists and Alan Padilla tattoos are particularly coveted due to his exceptional skill. 

As an artist, Alan Padilla also enjoys working with oil paintings, which helps to explain why he can create such impressively layered and shaded tattoos. His detail and style are all his own, creating designs for Sullen clothing that have been made into t shirts for men and women alike. His work for Sullen features all the detail and depth that is featured in his tattoo art, making them instantly appealing as well as utterly unique.  He enjoys tattooing portraits, creating impressively life-life tattoos with his art and has tattooed famous faces such as Tim Stewart (though not actually on his face!). 

A tattoo from Alan Padilla is a lengthy but brilliant affair, with his love of fantasy and skulls also helping to shape his identity. Whether it’s on a canvas or over skin, it’s clear that this tattoo artist takes a great deal of care with his work, with some of his designs taking the breath away with their incredibly fine detail. It's easy to see why Sullen clothing would want him to design for their art collective when you take a glance at his gallery of designs. A tattoo artist of exceptional quality that is known throughout America, he is a proud member of the Sullen art collective and will continue to design new prints for their clothing as well as continuing his work in the Timeline Gallery.
