NICOLAS CASTILLO

BLACK/GREY REALISM + COVER-UP SPECIALIST

Originally from Colombia, NICOLAS Castillo moved to New Jersey at 15, where he spent 13 years building his life and career as an artist. Now based in Indianapolis, Indiana, he continues to push his craft through custom tattooing and artwork.

NicOLAS specializes in black & grey, dark imagery, skulls, gothic themes, cover-ups, and large-scale custom projects. He works closely with each client to turn their ideas into unique designs that complement the body and are built to stand the test of time.

For NicOLAS, tattooing is more than a profession—it’s a lifelong craft and a way to connect with people through art. He believes in quality over speed, giving every piece the creativity, precision, and attention it deserves.

Outside the studio, NicOLAS enjoys spending time with his daughter, traveling, playing music, and finding inspiration through new experiences.
