From Canvas to Skin: The Journey of Maya Reyes into Tattoo Art
Maya Reyes has always had a passion for art. From the vibrant murals of her hometown to the quiet moments sketching in her studio, Maya has explored her love for drawing on various canvases. But recently, Maya took her art to an unexpected medium — skin. Through her collaboration with Tattoo Flick, she’s discovered the unique world of temporary tattoos, giving her a whole new way to connect with her audience.
Maya’s Background:
Growing up surrounded by street art and colorful urban landscapes, Maya’s style naturally gravitated toward bold lines and vibrant colors. She honed her skills at art school, where she initially studied painting and sculpture. “Art has always been about expression and transformation for me,” Maya shares. “The idea of turning my work into wearable art through temporary tattoos was exciting. It’s like sharing a piece of myself that people can try on.”
Transition to Tattoo Art:
After experimenting with different mediums, Maya wanted to reach people in a more personal, accessible way. That’s when Tattoo Flick approached her with the idea of adapting her work for temporary tattoos. “The challenge of translating my designs into something people can wear is both fun and meaningful,” she says. “It’s thrilling to know my art can go from paper to skin and still tell a story.”
Favorite Designs and Their Stories:
Maya’s collection is full of nature-inspired designs that reflect her love for the natural world. One of her most popular tattoos, a delicate rose with intricate shading, holds special meaning for her. “Roses are symbols of growth and resilience,” she explains. “I hope wearing it reminds people to stay strong and appreciate the beauty in their journey.”
Looking Ahead:
As her collection gains popularity, Maya is already brainstorming new designs. “This collaboration has sparked a whole new perspective on art for me,” she says. “I want to keep creating designs that inspire people, even if it’s just for a day or a week. Tattoos can be powerful, whether they’re permanent or temporary.”
