ABOUT ME

Hello, I’m James Alpert, a 22-year-old artist based in Los Angeles County, with a deep passion for creativity and dedication to honing my craft. I explore the worlds of tattooing, oil painting, graphic design, and marketing, always striving to grow as an artist and bring something unique to each piece.

Inspired by the diverse culture of Los Angeles, I began tattooing at 18, focusing on portrait work and realism. I aim to create meaningful tattoos that connect with my clients and tell their stories, while always learning and refining my skills to better capture the essence of my subjects.

In addition to tattooing, I work with graphic design, marketing, and digital tools, allowing me to explore different forms of artistic expression. I also collaborate with Victory House Agency under iHeartRadio to help raise awareness of Latino culture in Los Angeles, working on podcasts, music, and social media content.

As a graphic designer and music journalist for "For The Speakers", I highlight underground talent and collaborate with labels to discuss and promote music. I contribute by writing, designing, and animating, combining my love for art with my passion for music.

At the core of my work is a commitment to authenticity and storytelling. Whether through tattoos, design, or writing, I aim to reflect the unique narratives of others and hope my work resonates with people in a meaningful way.

I welcome you to explore my portfolio, where you’ll find my oil paintings, tattoo designs, and graphic work. My goal is to continue pushing my creative boundaries, while staying true to the stories that inspire me and those I work with. I invite you to join me on an artistic journey that pushes boundaries, challenges conventions, and leaves a lasting impression.
