Ismel Rodriguez was born and raised in Carolina, PR. He came to the US in 2013 searching for a job. He was hired by a Rental Car company as a Salesman. His hard work and ethics lead him to a Management position. He always had a passion for art, specifically sketching and painting. Ismel finally bought himself a tattoo machine and started practicing on practice skin. Due to circumstances, he was left with no choice but to walk away from his job and was then able to start concentrating on his passion. This passion for tattooing grew to become his job. And with only one year under his belt, he has learned to handle coverups, fine line, color, traditional, realism and more. Sacred Art of SA Tattoos is honored to have Ismel working with us!
