My name is Kiko Arceo — a husband, father, and grandfather from San Jose, California. After serving in the U.S. Army, I found my calling in tattooing in 2007. What started in my kitchen with my dad as my first canvas has grown into nearly two decades of creating art that carries purpose and soul.
My work blends Polynesian, Chamorro, Filipino, Samoan, Aztec, Taíno, Asian, realism, black & grey, fine line, and illustrative styles — each design crafted with balance and meaning. Tattooing, for me, isn’t just about ink; it’s about revealing what was always meant to be there.
This craft is my sanctuary — built from the grind, guided by faith, and rooted in heritage. Every piece I create is a reflection of strength, identity, and connection.
I mostly take appointments through my booking manager, but if you’re interested in getting tattooed, feel free to message me directly — I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
Welcome to KIKOTAT2S — where art meets purpose.
