What I didn’t know then, was that the letters were in my blood. The tradition of Hebrew lettering stretches back thousands of years.

I began drawing letters when I was five years old.

Testimonies

What our clients say

“There’s something really magical about Gabriel. He’s the person who is imagining what the what is, and then creating something that’s just so beautiful.”


Serena Oberstein

Los Angeles, CA

“I still am amazed how you guys could just extrapolate that from my mind and my heart and my soul, and be able to translate what I knew but was having trouble verbally conveying.”


New Bedford, MA

Abrah Zion

“I am not a deeply spiritual person, but this has been a deeply spiritual experience for me.”

our process

Your journey with us

01 — First contact

with Maya

You write to us. Maya calls you by phone or mails you. She is your guide from the very first word onward.

02 — Your story

with Anna

Before a single letter is drawn, Anna sits with you to understand the meaning. You talk about the person, the verse, the memory: why these words, and why now.

This is the soul-stripping part. The story behind the words matters more to us than the words themselves.

03 — The concept

with Gabriel

If your story inspires him, Gabriel writes the concept, the idea that will guide the whole piece. This is where words, meaning and form first take shape together.

04 — Meeting Gabriel

in Berlin or over Zoom

You meet Gabriel personally, at the studio in Berlin, or over Zoom. Together you talk through the concept, the script and the placement before anything is drawn.

05 — The model

with Daniel

Daniel takes a precise cast of your skin, a mold of the exact canvas the piece will live on. It captures every curve and contour of your body. That way, Gabriel can create a piece for your body.

06 — The art

with Gabriel

Gabriel draws your piece in his studio in Berlin.

07 — Getting tattooed

with a tattooist we trust

You receive a finished, tattoo-ready design. We will point you toward artists we trust to do it justice.
