Glad you could be here.

My name is Andrew Llave and I’m orginally from Galesburg, Illinois. My first entry into the arts was through fashion, primarily screen printing and alteration. After an failed attempt at nursing school, I moved to Chicago, IL in 2017 and finished my B.A in Communications and Media Studies in 2019. During my time in Chicago, I worked at what should be considered the best art materials selection in the US, Blick Art Materials. I experimented with a vast selection of different media, finding a preference first in acrylic paint and pop art, inspired by the likes of Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol.

I now intend for my work to blend traditional and fine line elements while drawing from Asian and Chicano culture, and endearing love for Hip-Hop. If its intricate pieces or bold lines that you’re after, I’m in constant pursuit to create timeless tattoos using your vision.

Cleanliness is prioritized to ensure safety and customer satisfaction. The studio is meticulously maintained, adhering to the highest industry standards. I look to provide a safe and comfortable environments for clients.

Sacred Moon’s thought is that if we are able to take a second (or third, fourth, etc.) layer of protection in order to decrease risk for ourselves and the customer, then we whole heartedly should.
