SUNRAT TATTOO ARTIST 4BLACK

Sunrat artist 4B (Sabi) is another resident tattooist at the studio. Sabi specializes in Old School and American Traditional style tattoos. Quite and polite, Sabi is usually kept to himself when it is time to work, very few words, but very friendly man. When Sabi is not tattooing or making tattoo flash, he is out doing what he loves to do besides tattooing. Sabi is one of the biggest names in the Graffiti scene here in Seoul Korea. Sabi started out writing graffiti before tattooing, so he pushes more towards Graffiti on his spare time. 

The  images below showcase on of Sabi's recent tattoo works. This tattoo is shows what Sabi is known for. Bold lines, awesome color works, and really unique designs. Grim reapers are usually tough and dark, but this design by Sabi shows that he can do more to his designs than the regular standard looks of things. Make it fun, excited, and your custom tattoo! Come by Sunrat Tattoo and choose from his many many designs. 

Sunrat Artist Saem

Traveling back and forth from the states to Seoul, Saem considers Sunrat as his home base shop. Originally from Seattle Washington, Saem specializes in New School style tattoos and Traditional style tattoos. He prefers any tattoos with bold lines and bright colors. Always with a smile on his face and very down to earth attitude, he welcomes anything and anyone that walks through these doors with an open mind and as much respect one man can bring.

Although Saem considers himself as a New School style tattoo artist, he loves and respects everything about Old School and Traditional style tattoos. Saems New School style has a mixture of all the styles he loves. As you will see in his works, his style combines the feel of Old School style tattoos, mixed with New School flavor. With crisp bold lines, solid color blends, and twists of his designs, his tattoos scream of a unique style.

Sunrat Artist Jin Seok

Jin Seok has only been with the Sunrat crew for a few months, but is a great asset to the family. Jin specializes in Neo Traditional style tattoos but is also very talented in Black and Grey/Realism style tattoos as well. With a very open mind and his kind gestures, he will help you feel very comfortable in receiving your tattoo from him at Sunrat. 

Jin Seok has a Bachelors degree in Fine Arts so he wants to push more of his latest work towards Modern Art style. Jin has always loved Old School and Traditional style tattoos so he wants to incorporate some of that into his new twist as well. Here is an example of one of his newest pieces with his modern twist to it.
