The OC "Tat Master" Keeps Looking For New Avenues Of Artistic Expression.
Just 27 years old, Steve Soto has accomplished more in five years than many have in their entire life. Born and raised in Anaheim, California, Steve started drawing at an early age, and after graduating from high school, he started to work on his future by attending college and working on a graphic design degree.
Steve started to do tattoos just to get by and pay some bills while in college. At the time, he saw tattooing as a way to make some extra "cheese" and he never thought that his passion for drawing, which evolved through illustrating children's books and doing stickers for vending machines, would take him as far as it has.
Steve's now known worldwide since his "flash" is sold on the Internet and in countless tattoo expos. He's now a master when it comes down to black and gray tattoos, realism, Aztec and portraits. Steve has always been inspired by different artists like Chuy from Good Time Charlie's, Jose Lopez from Lowrider Tattoos, Carlos Torres and the world-famous OG Abel.
