Qulock relocated from Atlanta where he has been tattooing since 1995. He was born overseas and spent much of his childhood in Japan which influenced his taste in pop culture and art, from Menga to street art. Qulock’s favorite part of tattooing is working with individuals to come up with the perfect collaboration of ideas to make a great custom piece for each client. He also enjoys always having the coolest shoes in the studio.

Hello there! My name is Bato Veljkov and i have been a professional piercer since 2010. Body piercing gained interest with me during my early teen years and i’ve always been attracted to the unique individuals who modified themselves with piercings and other body art. I love and respect piercing and will do all in my power to give you an absolutely positive experience during our time together. Whether it’s your first time or you’re a hardened veteran to the needle i will be sure to guide you through all the steps and answer any questions to the best of my ability.
I also enjoy long walks on the beach and homemade cookies, but enough about me!
