Gustavo C. Espinoza Jr

Originally from Anaheim Ca. Grew up there into my teens, moved here to Colorado to get away from the shit I got myself into there and try to be a better person. I’m 1 of 5 siblings 3sisters and a brother. Other than high school art classes I have no formal training, just a love for art. I’m self taught as far as painting and drawing. I have taken a few classes on watercolor and oil painting. My Tattoo career started in 98’ at Millennium Gallery I was apprenticed by Tim Corley & begun tattooing in ’01. I did a short stint at Covenant, worked at Tribal Rites, La Familia, Runic, Tobi’s Tattoo, Parabrahma Tattoo Collective.  Which brings us to La Rosa Tattoo Company. That’s a good 20yrs of solid tattooing!  I’ve worked with a lot of great people through the years and picked up a lot of good tips tricks advice the whole spectrum. As they say, “Rome wasn’t built in a day” neither was I, so grateful to have met a lot of great people and have their knowledge passed to me. I’ll continue to keep learning and better myself, Thank you.
