HI FAM, MY NAME IS RAY E ESPARZA.
I’m a self-taught tattoo artist. I’m passionate about tattooing. Just to be able to create something with your hands, step back, and see realism, I love that. I was blessed with this talent.
I also cut men’s hair. I do fades, low/high/taper fades, and designs.
I grew up in the streets and joined a gang at 10. I’m currently in solitary confinement in a Texas prison, initially serving a 4-year sentence due to gang fighting, which after 3 years turned into a 25-year sentence in solitary confinement due to a conflict with staff. I have been in solitary confinement for 10 years now.
I hope one day I can have my own tattoo parlor, doing what I love and creating art people love.
I pass my days by reading, working out, doing art, and studying, bettering myself. I always look to my past so that I remember this is not who I am, someone I no longer want to be. I look to my past so that I can make better choices as a man. I’ve grown, but I’m still growing, learning to be better.
Thank you for stopping by. I would love to hear from you. All correspondence will go through my friend Iris, who created this website and platform. Please check out the blog for how we met and why we created this website and the blog.
