Mike Forero

Mike is a tattoo artist with a strong fine art foundation, specializing in black and grey realism while working towards expanding his repertoire into vivid, painterly color work. 

He is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s in Fine Art Studio at the University of Central Florida, and is avidly deepening his understanding of classical art principles… honing composition, light, and form, while exploring how these time-honored methods can merge seamlessly with modern tattooing. His approach is rooted in storytelling, symbolism, and a belief that a tattoo should not only be worn but experienced.

Outside the studio, Mike is the host of The Noodle Soup Show, a podcast dedicated to exploring the creative process, the power of narrative, and the evolving role of art in contemporary culture… featuring candid conversations with some of today’s most inspiring creatives.
