About The Artist
Josh Katz is a Queer tattoo artist and painter based in Oakland, CA. Growing up in The Bay Area surrounded by graffiti and street art, he found a passion for spray painting at an early age. As an adult, he channeled this love to create large murals of Queer icons who inspired him. These murals were a way to both honor the legacies of his subjects, while increasing LGBTQ visibility in street art where it was underrepresented.
Katz still paints murals, but his primary focus currently is pursuing a career in tattooing. His tattoos similarly focus on Queer imagery, but through a playful lens. He loves inking images of daddies, queens, and gay erotica in an American Traditional style. Beyond that, he is happy to accommodate a range of styles and subject matter.
