The Tattoos and Art of Bryce Nadeau

I'm Bryce Nadeau — tattoo artist, illustrator, painter, and lifelong art junkie. Growing up in a military family, I had the rare privilege of experiencing life in many different places, and those travels left a deep creative mark on me. From a young age, I was that kid always drawing, flipping through comic books like X-Men and Heavy Metal Magazine, blasting music like Anthrax’s “I Am The Law,” and getting lost in a steady stream of sci-fi movies. Those were the days, man — and they still fuel my fire.

I hit the road early, landing on the streets of Hollywood, California. I scraped by doing day labor, sketching flyers for metal bands, doing extra work in movies and music videos — eventually landing an internship in the art department at Capitol Records. But corporate life wasn’t my thing.

In 1995, I took a leap and began an apprenticeship in tattooing. Now, over 30 years later, I’ve been lucky enough to grow with this ever-evolving industry — constantly inspired by its cultures, artists, and diverse styles. From realistic and full-color pieces to traditional, nu skool, Japanese, and beyond, I love creating custom work that brings each client’s vision to life.

My art doesn't like to sit still — and neither do I. Whether it’s tattooing, painting, or illustration, I follow where the inspiration leads. If you’re looking for custom work that’s personal, bold, and crafted with care, I’d be honored to be part of your story.

Let’s make something rad.
