Balancing Intuition & Technique | Levi Hilton

Fireside Tattoo Podcast

What's up everyone, I just had the opportunity to sit down with the incredibly talented Levi Hilton, a recommendation from our friend Patrick O'Neal, and it turned out to be one of the best episodes we've recorded in quite a while. Levi shared his journey from Louisiana to San Diego, diving deep into how animation influenced his unique tattoo style and the importance of understanding how designs interact with the body as a canvas.

We explored some really profound concepts about simplifying art for maximum impact, using negative space effectively, and why making mistakes is actually essential to artistic growth. If you're looking to level up your tattoo game with insights about shape design, placement techniques, and finding your authentic artistic voice, this conversation is packed with wisdom you won't want to miss.
