The artist behind the work

Alexzander Barajas

I’ve been a lifelong artist, with backgrounds in drawing, painting, and woodworking. I also studied engineering in college prior to becoming a tattoo artist.

I began my professional tattoo journey in 2020, working in a few different shops around the Boise area and now I own Iron Maiden Tattoo in Idaho Falls alongside my partner Michelle.

I’m comfortable in most styles, but my particular areas of interest are fine-line Chicano, Japanese, realism, and traditional.

I moved around a lot growing up but spent most of my formative years in California. Both of my parents are retired professional fighters, and martial arts is another passion of mine. Having a background like that during my developmental years has led me to seek growth and have introspection in all facets of my life, including my work as a tattooer.
