Two decades deep in the game, Isaac started self-taught, leveled up through a gritty old-school apprenticeship, and never stopped grinding. From black-and-grey Chicano roots to award-winning work across the country, he’s carved out a legacy in skin. Now holding it down at Knoxville Tattoo Collective — his own creative sanctuary — he blends technical mastery, storytelling ink, and a mentor’s heart to pass the torch to the next gen. Whether it’s a soulful cover-up, mythological epic, or cosmic raccoon (yeah, we remember), Isaac turns ideas into unforgettable art — one needle at a time.
