Meet Stiepan G: Proteam Tattoo Artist and Owner of Zero Five Tattoo Zagreb
Stiepan G, a renowned tattoo artist based in Zagreb, Croatia, has built a name for himself in the tattoo world with his mastery in Black and Grey Realism and his growing passion for color work. As the owner of Zero Five Tattoo, Stiepan has not only perfected his craft but also created a space where art and client care come together to deliver exceptional tattoo experiences.
A Journey from Switzerland to Germany and Back to Croatia
Stiepan’s tattoo journey began during his student days when he acquired some basic tattoo equipment from a friend in Switzerland. Eager to dive into the world of tattooing, he practiced on friends, honing his skills and gaining confidence in his art. His dedication paid off when, ten years ago, he was invited to work at a tattoo studio in Germany.
After five successful years in Germany, Stiepan returned to Croatia to establish his own studio, Zero Five Tattoo Zagreb. It was here that he truly flourished, building a loyal clientele and participating in numerous tattoo conventions. Stiepan’s talent has earned him recognition, including 1st and 2nd place awards for Best Realistic Black and Grey at the Rijeka Tattoo Expo and two 2nd place awards at the Zagreb Tattoo Convention.
Mastering Black and Grey Realism with a Growing Love for Color
Stiepan specializes in Black and Grey Realism, crafting detailed, lifelike pieces that leave a lasting impression. His favorite tattoo to date is a leg sleeve depicting a battle between good and evil, a masterpiece that showcases his ability to tell stories through ink.
While realism remains his primary focus, Stiepan's passion for color tattooing continues to grow. With each new project, he explores vibrant palettes, expanding his artistic horizons and offering clients even more variety in his designs.
The Onyx Difference: Precision, Comfort, and Superior Care
Stiepan’s commitment to excellence extends beyond his tattoo designs to the tools and products he uses. After discovering Onyx Tattoo Supply, he quickly incorporated their products into his daily routine. "The method of product implementation facilitates everyday work, and the quality has been elevated to a new level," Stiepan says.
He especially appreciates the precision of Onyx needles and the tattoo films that ensure smooth healing. However, his favorite product is the Magic Soap, which clients love for its soothing scent and antibacterial properties. "With the labeled aftercare set, my clients are perfectly cared for throughout the healing process. The cream promotes comfortable healing, and the antibacterial foam provides peace of mind," Stiepan explains.
A Studio Built on Passion and Expertise
At Zero Five Tattoo Zagreb, Stiepan has created more than just a tattoo studio—it’s a creative sanctuary where clients feel comfortable and cared for from the moment they walk in. His combination of artistic skill, precision tools from Onyx, and a passion for client care ensures that every tattoo he creates is both beautiful and meaningful.
