MARIONA BELCHI
BLACK AND GREY TECHNIQUES
FROM DRAWING TO FINISHED TATTOO
PERSONALIZED MENTORSHIP FOR TATTOO ARTISTS WITH PRIOR EXPERIENCE
This two-day seminar is designed to provide personalized mentorship, tailored to your skill level and individual needs. My goal is to help you learn in a realistic, practical way, without rushing the process, so you can apply what you learn directly to human skin.
About your Master: Mariona Belchi
Mariona creates pieces that draw from surrealism and visual symbolism: symbolic figures, stylized hearts, fragmented faces, and dreamlike motifs that engage in a dialogue with the unconscious. The absence of color does not limit the expressive power of her work; rather, it enhances its emotional and aesthetic impact.
