Hey! I’m B (or Becs) Iturralde. My main artistic practice is tattoo art, but recently I have found the courage and drive to also pursue other mediums more freely. I really just want to design and create things, and I’m excited to begin sharing my work with you!

I began tattooing professionally in 2018, starting with handpoked tattoos. Handpoke was the most approachable introduction to my tattoo journey for me since I was going to try and teach myself, but once I became part of the tattoo community my peers and friends taught me so much that it’s now more accurate to consider myself a community-taught tattooer. I fell in love with handpoke tattoos quickly, and consider it my specialty, but in the last couple years I’ve really started to enjoy tattooing with machine as well. Regardless of the medium, I enjoy exploring techniques and tattoo styles, and making people the tattoos of their ⋆｡˚dreams☁︎ ˚｡⋆☽˚｡⋆

Tattoos can be grounding, healing, freeing. Everyone deserves to be celebrated, exactly as they are, and the imagery and worlds I create in my art are meant to be reminders of that.
