At Onyx Tattoo Supply, we’re always looking to partner with artists who redefine the art of tattooing. We’re thrilled to welcome Danijel Podobnik, the owner of Marvels Tattoo Studio in Bistrinci, Croatia, to the Onyx Pro Team! With a unique blend of realism and abstraction, Danijel’s work is both technically flawless and artistically groundbreaking.
A Journey Through Art: From Paint to Skin
Danijel’s career as an artist began long before he picked up a tattoo machine. With over 22 years of experience, he first honed his craft as a paint artist, mastering realistic portraits and abstract compositions on canvas. From mural work in local cafés and gyms to 3D acrylic paintings, his evolution as an artist was fueled by an insatiable desire to push the limits of creativity.
In 2015, he took on a new challenge: translating his signature realism-meets-abstraction style from canvas to human skin. Some told him it was impossible—but Danijel thrives on proving the impossible possible.
A Style That Stands Out
Danijel’s tattoos are a fusion of hyperrealism and abstract elements, with a strong emphasis on selective coloring. Every tattoo is an opportunity for him to refine his technique, innovate new methods, and grow as an artist—a process he describes as "neverending growth."
A Recognized Talent in the Industry
Among Danijel’s proudest moments was completing a tattoo of overlapped palms, which caught the attention of renowned tattoo artist David Vega, who described it as "beautiful." Such recognition fuels Danijel’s dedication to excellence, ensuring that every tattoo he creates surpasses the last.
Why Danijel Chooses Onyx Tattoo Supply
As a perfectionist in his craft, Danijel is highly selective about the tools he uses. That’s why he trusts Onyx Tattoo Needles and Onyx Skull Caps to help him achieve the precision and depth his work demands.
🔹 "Onyx needles allow me to create the smoothest blends and sharpest details in my realism tattoos, while Onyx Skull Caps give me total comfort and control during long sessions. It’s all about pushing the limits of quality."
What’s Next for Danijel?
With no finish line in sight, Danijel’s goal is simple yet powerful: continuous growth and evolution. He is always looking for new ways to improve his techniques, refine his style, and push tattoo realism to the next level.
And if he could tattoo anyone? He’s got one dream client in mind:
🔥 "I’d love to tattoo Tom Cruise—because getting that opportunity would be my own ‘Mission Impossible’!"
