My name is Chris Smades, and I’m originally from South Florida. I’ve been tattooing since 2008 and proudly own All City Tattoo Company in Delray Beach, Florida, which I established in 2015. My specialty lies in large-scale black and grey realism, where I focus on creating smooth shading, incredibly clean lines, and thoughtful compositions that flow seamlessly with the body. Lights, shadows, and overall balance are at the core of my design approach. While black and grey realism is my primary focus, I also enjoy working with color tattoos, fine line designs, and other mixed styles. Most of my days are spent designing custom tattoos and bringing those designs to life on skin!
