MISCHKATATTOO
Aleksandra Michalska
Hi, I'm Alex, a 30 year old tattoo artist from Poland, based in stunning Cornwall, UK.
I have been drawing ever since I remember, often getting inspiration from comic books and animation during early years.
I mainly use digital art as my tool - my introduction to graphic tablets and the magic of Photoshop started at the age of 10 and it was instant love. I still come back to traditional form (nothing can replace pencils and paper feel) but its way less common in my workspace.
My teenage dream was to become a concept artist in the video gaming industry, but life took me on a bit of alternative path and I discovered the beauty of applying artwork on skin.
I have started my tattooing career in 2014, when I first came to the UK. Since then, it just did not stop!
In 2023 I became a co-owner of White Water Tattoo Collective, in Truro.
I cover a wide range of styles but fineline, sketch and abstract hold a special place in my heart.
My favourite themes are gaming, anime and nature.
I do sell my artprints and merchandise through my side project shop - CultOfCharlie.
Outside of tattooing:
One of the many, many hobbies I am passionate about is videography. In all fairness, I have a multitude of interests, many of them quite niche, so there is always something to talk about and discuss!
I have a really fluffy cat called Charlie, and she is my world. She doesn't appreciate the amount of love I have for her, but that's okay. I made my peace with it!
