"TATTOED UP"....MIKE GIANT STYLE

After I went to my first Mike Giant art show in Venice about 6 yrs ago, I INSTANTLY feel in love! Mr.Gigante, originally from SF, spent many years in BORQUE and was definitely inspired by the CHICANO culture that thrives there! A tattoo/graffiti/graphic/fine artist/fashion designer with a spiritual twist, Mike Giant is ABSOLUTELY 1 OF MY FAVORITE ARTISTS! I love starring at his pieces & finding all the lil secrets in each picture, look deep for the social commentary. It’s the small details that captivate me & I kinda love that most of his pieces are done with a Sharpie. Mike Giant’s art can be found in galleries around the world, or if your really lucky, you might catch a glimpse of a skateboard or an OG tattoo in a neighborhood near you!
