Meet the Artist
My name is Gior, I'm a black and grey realism tattoo artist based in Fairfield, California. I specialize in dark/surreal realism, Japanese-inspired concepts, classical imagery, mythology, custom pieces and large-scale tattoo projects.
My approach is focused on creating tattoos that feels personal and I treat every tattoo with the same level of respect, whether it’s a smaller piece or something that takes multiple sessions to complete. Every piece is developed around the client’s ideas, anatomy, placement, and long-term vision.
A big part of my process is composition, smooth black and grey values, and creating work that flows naturally with the body. I want the finished piece to look strong on its own, but also feel like it belongs on the person wearing it. Just as importantly, I want every client to feel comfortable throughout the process—from the initial consultation and design phase to the tattoo session and aftercare.
I work with clients from Vacaville, Fairfield, Dixon, Davis, Suisun City, and throughout Northern California, as well as clients who travel for my work.
