Meet Stephen Carballo

Stephen is a traveling tattoo artist based in Venice, CA, known for meaningful fine line and micro realism tattoos for those who wander. With 20 years of experience, his work is subtle, detailed, and personal — always done one-on-one in a calm, private setting.

Now in Durango for a limited guest spot (June 5-6 2025) — book your session while he’s here!

Fine Line Tattoos for Those Who Wander

I create tattoos for people who move through the world with a sense of wonder — travelers, seekers, quiet rebels. Every piece is clean, intentional, and built to last.

Booking is easy but spots are limited. Sessions are 2 hours, the process is breezy, and when we're done you’ll walk out with a tattoo with a touch of destiny—something that feels like it was always meant to be there.

Let's make magic, Durango!

CLIENT LOVE

New Places, Familiar Energy

Wherever I tattoo — LA, Venice, Denver, Durango, and beyond — the best part is always the people. I’m grateful for the trust and all the good vibes I encounter among people who are drawn to my work.

Matt McDonald

Exquisite detail, fair price, and a great dude. I can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my body.

Olina Scherbakova

My tattoo turned out amazing — the design is so unique, and I get compliments all the time. The quality is top-notch. I’m so glad I didn’t go the cheap route and chose this artist instead. Hands down the best fine line work in Los Angeles.

Adam V.

Steve’s the best tattoo artist in Los Angeles. My fineline tattoo healed perfectly. He was patient, focused and fun to work with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for some fresh ink.
