Watercolor ink that refuses to sit still

Ana-Crista is the artist behind Adora Ink Tattoo, in Fuenlabrada, Madrid. The work sits in New School and watercolor: saturated colour, painterly washes and a line that still reads after the piece heals.

Drawing came first, and at a high level, from a very young age. She tattooed skin at eleven. At sixteen she took a booth at the International Tattoo Convention Bucharest — the youngest artist ever to do so. In 2026, at Inkora, she placed fourth in Best of Color Small/Medium and third in Best of New School.

Every piece starts as a unique stencil, built or adjusted digitally before the session. Nothing is pulled from a catalogue.

Sessions are custom. Send the idea, the placement and the size; you get a sketch and a date, held with a deposit. Single-use needles and pigment caps, autoclave-sterilised tools, and a covered station for every client.

The studio and its accounts are managed together with her parents.
