BECCA ROACH

Oahu and NYC based “Bad News Becca” Roach started tattooing after she gained an apprenticeship in 2005, following receiving her BFA in illustration from Pratt Institute in 2004.

Her tattooing is mainly influenced from traditional large scale Japanese styles, and traditional sailor styles. As a painter, her work is influenced by Japanese and Mexican wood block prints, adventure, vintage signs, and the music she loves.

When not in the studio at Lana Lane, you can find her getting lost in the jungle, surfing something, or tinkering on her old Chevy truck.
