Hey! I'm Mena, a handpoke tattoo artist based in Mexico City.

My main approach to handpoke involves themes related to nature (animals, insects, plants, etc.), with a clear intention behind the meaning of each piece. I equally enjoy doing larger freehand designs and ornamental tattoos. You can find me on Instagram!

    That looks cool. It seems these might fade more pleasantly than a lot of tattoos. All tattoo artists should have to show how their work looks 5 or 10 years out.

    I would have serious problems with seeing this person on a regular basis. (Great artwork though.)

    They decided "til death do us part" wasn't enough of a commitment.

    It's like a Rohrschach test in which butterfly is the optimal answer. Or maybe it's two penguins mating and I'm the one who's nuts. Or both.
