Steve Sherick

Steve Sherick is an award-winning tattoo artist based in Downtown San Jose, California. With over a decade of experience in the craft, Steve has built a reputation as one of the Bay Area's premier artists for custom blackwork, sacred geometry, neo tribal, and large-scale tattoo compositions.

Every piece Steve creates begins as a blank canvas. No flash, no templates, no copying other artists' work. Each design is hand drawn from scratch, tailored to the individual's anatomy, lifestyle, and creative vision. Steve's deep understanding of how designs flow with the human body results in tattoos that feel intentional and alive — not like stickers placed on skin.

Operating from a private, appointment-only studio in Downtown San Jose, Steve provides every client with a focused, one-on-one experience from initial consultation through the final session. No walk-ins or rushed appointments — just dedicated, high-quality work in a professional environment.

Steve's specialties include blackwork, solid black, blackout, neo tribal, sacred geometry, mandala, dotwork, large-scale back and body pieces, sleeve tattoos, cover ups, and blast overs. Clients travel from across the Bay Area, Silicon Valley, and California to work with him.
