POSKMadRid, SpainWhen I was looking for a “place”within the streets in 1990, I startedwriting. The streets taught mealmost everything that I know. I’m still writing,but I’m not as active as I used to be.My first tattoos were made in 1996. <strong>Graffiti</strong>changed my life; it gave me a new course, andthen tattooing simply saved my life. Lettering(the art of writing letters) is the style thatdefines me. I guess it’s partly because of graffitiand also because I am very into the researchand study of letters and styles.Everything that surrounds me is whatinspires my work. My style is changing as constantlyas the rhythm of life and as I changetoo. The essence has remained the same sinceI started. I think the best of my work is still tocome. I challenge myself to get better everyday. Like the song says, ‘Looking For thePerfect Beat’.What is it like to be a tattoo artist? Itrequires a lot of discipline and study, it’salways challenging. <strong>Tattoo</strong>ing is just anotherform of art and beauty. Of course there is aclear graffiti influence in my tattoos. But themost difficult part of my career is to fullyunderstand each style and preserve the bestof each them, knowing how to find theirdifferences and respecting where they camefrom so I can use the styles in their purestform. posking@hotmail.composking.wordpress.comFacebook: Posk BuenatintaBuena TintaAv. de la Constitución 1328931 Móstoles, Madrid, Spainwww.buenatinta.com182183
