Drawing is among Leila’s first memories and has been a tool for expression throughout all her life.
She had a crash course on Cross Contamination and tattoo basics with Conan, an old school tattooist from Rosario, Argentina. He didn’t took her as an apprentice because she had to go to school. Leila was 16 years old when she did her first tattoos on friends. She kept tattooing as a growing hobby as she traveled, studying different styles and appreciating the richness in present and past cultures.
Leila’s art is mostly inspired by nature and other forms of arts, literature and folklore.
