    Adal Will Be Tattooing at the 2018 11th Baltimore Tattoo Arts Convention. Schedule an Appointment Today.

    Hey everyone, Adal here, owner of Majestic Tattoo NYC. As many of y’all may know, I’ve taken several years off the tattoo convention circuit in an effort to raise my son in a more hands-on fashion.

    But I’m excited to announce that I’ll be working in the Inkmasters Row at the 11th Baltimore Tattoo Arts Convention by Villain Arts on May 4 – May 6, 2018 at the Baltimore Convention Center.

    I’ll still have appointments available for the convention and am looking for interesting projects to take on. I’m currently working with colorful, geometric and abstract forms (and as always, fractals). See my portfolio for more information.

  • Alex Grey & MC Escher Combination Hands Tattoo

    Yesterday, Adal was thrilled to have the opportunity to draw and execute a very meaningful custom tattoo as specifically requested by a client: a combination of MC Escher’s Drawing Hands as well as Alex Grey’s Artist’s Hand.

    Here is the final tattoo result:

    alex-grey-mc-escher-hands-tattoo-by-adal

    Here are the two artworks, for reference:

    alex grey artists hand

    Furthermore, Adal has been heavily influenced throughout his career by both artists, and has been fortunate enough to learn from and spend time with Alex Grey over the years. Alex has remained one of Adal’s contemporary heroes and gurus of the visionary arts, and Alex has shown to be supportive of tattoo artists who practice in a similar subject matter. We look forward to his next book, in which a handful of visionary tattoo artists will be featured. Adal has also done several other Alex Grey tattoos, such as Birth and the DMT Molecule, which you can see here:

    Mandalas have a huge spiritual and ritual significance in Hinduism and Buddhism. Though Hindi word in nature mandalas are often used in many tibetan and Asian religions. The basic form of most mandalas is a square with four gates containing a circle with a center point representing a radical balance.

  • Fractals

    Fractal Tattoo Artwork

    Full sleeve color fractal tattoo sleeveColor Fractal Arm Tattoocolor fractal spiral pattern shoulder tattoo by Adal

    Fractals – visual patterns based on naturally occurring mathematical alogrithms. The self-replicating forms can be found on earth as in space, squinted at under a microscope as through a telescope. And they’re beautiful.

    Adal has been creating fractals, on canvas, paper, and skin, since he started making art. For him, the pull lies in the process: of translating perpetual movement into static visuals, and of translating nature into art. At the end, these organic forms find their perfect state on the human body, an organic alliance of the natural and the superficial, and a way of creating anatomically fit tattoos. And they’re beautiful.

    Round one of two on this condor wing chest tattoo. While a lot of tattoos can be completed in one session, it’s not uncommon to hold multiple sessions during which details can be refined.
