The Journey
Big Dave began his tattoo career in 2012 in an unexpected way. After getting a tattoo in Oxford, England, and feeling dissatisfied with the result, he realized he could do better himself. This moment sparked his decision to fully commit to the world of tattooing.
Shortly after, he secured an apprenticeship at a tattoo studio in Oxford, where he trained under experienced artists for approximately one year. He went on to work in England for nearly four years, developing his technical skills and artistic identity before returning to Portugal.
