Renato Alegría
Bio:
I was born in Valparaíso, Chile, around 76. I was attracted to the arts from an early age. My first contacts with art were through drawing, sculpture and decorative acrylic painting on canvas that my maternal grandmother made, along with model aircraft.
Until I was 8 years old, I lived in Chile. My family moved to France, then to Barcelona to finally establish our residence in the Canary Islands. I studied delineation and then illustration at the Las Palmas School of Art. My first professional illustrations were for the Skate Jart brand and I worked on various projects related to the world of skateboarding.
In 1995 my career began in the world of tattooing and since then this has been my profession, which has allowed me to move around places like Italy, Japan, Indonesia, the USA and London, in the latter collaborating with my great friend Miguel Angel in Ouch Tattoo and Latin Angel, in Richmond, UK.
After 11 years working as a tattoo artist, I am lucky to meet Ruth, who will become my life partner, work partner and partner in a project that will forge the new vision of Renato Tattoos.
