Jose Bustillos is a distinguished tattoo artist at Hart & Huntington Tattoo Co. Las Vegas, recognized for his ability to seamlessly blend traditional techniques with contemporary artistic influences. His deep dive into the world of tattooing began by attending conventions, which sparked his inspiration to pursue an apprenticeship. Jose’s primary passion lies in Japanese-inspired tattoos, whether traditional or neo-illustrative, captivated by their bold imagery and profound symbolism. He also adeptly merges this style with Chicano black and grey, creating unique and compelling designs. With expertise spanning American traditional, black and grey, and more, Jose is driven by tattoos that tell powerful stories and showcase strong imagery, viewing them as vital tools for self-discovery and expression. In his time away from the needle, Jose remains immersed in tattoo culture through books, documentaries, and drawing new designs, often accompanied by his dog while binging “One Piece.”
