▲ About

Illustrative color tattoos. Built on craft, dialed in over years.

Julian — known as xwildxlovex — is one of Hawaii's top illustrative color tattoo artists. Pomona, California (Califas) roots; now putting in the work daily at Ohana Tattoo Company in Waikiki.

Saturated color. Bold illustrative line. Custom compositions that lean into character, contrast, and story — pieces that read across a room and hold their voice over decades. Walk in for flash or text ahead with a custom idea — Julian builds the design fresh, never traced.

Honolulu home base. The craft taken seriously, the work delivered with aloha.

what i do

Hand-drawn pieces, walk-in flash, and the rest of the conversation we'll have when you walk in.

custom designs

Bring an idea or a feeling — we'll draw something fresh together. Hand-drawn, never traced, sized for the body part it's living on.

walk-in flash

Hand-painted flash sheets at Ohana, ready to ink. Pick from the wall, sit in the chair, walk out with a fresh piece.

small & meaningful

Tiny pieces, single-line drawings, fine-detail work. The quiet tattoos that hold a lot.

cover-ups & reworks

Got something old you want to make new? Bring a photo and we'll talk through what's possible.
