Black Cat Portrait by Oscar Becerra in Barcelona

I am a multidisciplinary artist working between tattooing and painting. For more than a decade, I have developed a visual language influenced by traditional tattooing, figurative painting, symbolism and animals. My tattoo practice is based on collaboration, creating custom pieces that become part of each person’s story. In painting, I have more freedom to transform these images into expressive and imagined worlds. I also create commissioned paintings, including personalized portraits of pets and loved ones, combining a painterly approach with the character and personality of each subject. Across both mediums, I am interested in texture, gesture, symbolism and the emotional connection we create with the images we choose to keep with us.
