1500+ 5 STAR REVIEWS - SERVING THE STICK AND POKE TATTOO COMMUNITY SINCE 2016

Artist Interview - batu_madz

This week we interviewed a self-taught stick and poke artist whose connections to others, both clients and other artists, drives his passion for his artform.

 

Who are you and where are you based?

My name is Saul, AKA Batu Madz. I’m a 30 year old artist based in Madrid, Spain.

 

How long have you been a stick and poke artist for and how did you learn?

It’s been almost 4 years since I’ve started officially to poke some skins. I’ve always been a self-taught artist, so when I got confident enough, after practising on fake skin, I’ve started poking my own skin, and some friends and family I could convince.

 

What is it that draws you to stick and poke tattoos?

I have been drawing since I can remember, and dotwork became my favourite technique as it helped my mind to disconnect from everyday routine, focusing on every single dot I could draw. I loved tattoos since I got my first ones when I was 18 years old, but it wasn`t until I discovered hand poke I felt confident to try and poke. Since then, I started my career as a stick and poke self-taught artist. I believe that my passion for dotwork helped me to develop my own style I use nowadays to create and develop my hand poke tattoos.

 

What would be your top tip for perfecting poke technique?

I think the best tips for perfecting your technique is to practice, get to know other artists and share knowledge with them, learn tricks and tips, and ask any doubt you might get to on your path.

 

Tell us about your favourite hand poked story.

I think every time I get to poke a skin it turns into a single and unique story, and it’s amazing to find how small the world is and to realize how close you are to a complete unknown person, just by a simple conversation, you get to discover how many things and people in common you have. That for me is wonderful.

 

What advice would you give to someone who’s starting out as a stick and poke artist?

Poke, poke poke. Practice makes perfect. No one is born knowing. Also watching and asking another talented artist it’s very important. And always try to move on and leave your comfy and safe space and try new things!

 

Lastly, where can people find you?

I’m currently poking in Madrid, at “what a week!” studio, but often I move to other cities as Valencia, Bilbao, Barcelona, and soon I will plan a European tour, and hopefully a north and south America tour!

    In March of this year, my Bitcoin wallet was hacked after I unknowingly clicked on a phishing email. Within moments, I was locked out of my wallet, which held approx $287,000 worth of BTC. The experience left me feeling angry, helpless, and deeply frustrated.
    I immediately sought help through the proper channels, reporting the theft to authorities, but they couldn’t assist with Bitcoin recovery. That’s when I was referred to a private investigator by a mutual contact. This investigator introduced me to Morphohack, a cyber recovery service. I was skeptical at first, naturally cautious after being scammed, but I reached out anyway.
    Morphohack responded quickly and professionally. After providing them with all the necessary documentation and wallet details, their team began tracing the movement of the stolen Bitcoin. Over the next four days, they worked to track the funds through the blockchain, using advanced forensic tools and strategies.
    To my relief, they were able to recover the bulk of the stolen BTC, about $269,000 worth. While a small portion couldn’t be retrieved, I was extremely grateful for the outcome and impressed by their transparency and expertise throughout the process.
    Morphohack not only helped me recover my assets but also guided me on improving my digital security to prevent future incidents. I highly recommend them to anyone dealing with crypto theft. Their support made a huge difference when I needed it most. Morphohack team can be contacted via E-mail: Morphohack@cyberservices(.)com

    Potential investors are hesitant to seize this profitable investment opportunity due to the depressing rise in internet theft that targets digital assets. I myself lost $123,850 after falling for a scam from an online Pocket Options Broker. They lured me in by promising me large profits on my money, but I was turned away when I attempted to visit the investing website later. I tried to get in touch with their support staff, but I quickly discovered that I had been scammed.
    I was desperate to get my money back, so I looked online for answers and found Wizard James Recovery. I was drawn to his stellar reputation for offering top-notch recovery services. I took a chance and contacted him, and to my surprise, he was able to assist me get back all of the money I had lost within 72 hours. My gratitude for his exceptional service is beyond words.

    Hi guys, my name is Sarah Flower, I ended my marriage in 2024 due to suffering from domestic abuse at the hands of my husband. Currently, he is trying to reconcile with me after finding out that I won a Jackpot Lottery Prize of $96 million. Fortunately, I received assistance online from Lord Meduza, the great spell caster who has successfully aided many individuals worldwide in winning the lottery. I reached out to him about my circumstances and expressed my desire to win the lottery. After casting the spell, he provided me with the exact numbers to play. Now, my husband wants me back, fully aware of my $96 million lottery win, but I told him no; I will not return to him. I am incredibly grateful to Lord Meduza, and if you find yourself facing a tough situation, I recommend that you reach out to Lord Meduza as he’s the best in his field. You can reach him via

    Through Telegram, I’ve finally had the opportunity to witness genuine professionalism with DuneNectarWebExpert. This experience has renewed my trust in people and strengthened my conviction in the significance of persistence and empathy. As a long-standing physician practicing in Atlanta, Georgia, I’ve treated numerous patients who have been victimized, their lives irreversibly altered by the damaging consequences of entrusting the wrong person with their private and financial details. One of my patients suggested that I seek help from DuneNectarWebExpert. From the instant I contacted ( Support (@) Dunenectarwebexpert (.) C0M ), I was met with comprehension, as they grasped the emotional distress caused by an online romance scam. Their professionalism, compassion, and commitment to rectifying the injustices suffered by scam victims, including myself and many others, were evident. Their team, comprised of cybersecurity professionals and digital investigation specialists, promptly evaluated the situation and developed a thorough plan to retrieve my lost funds. I would not be writing this epistle if I had not achieved the outcome I anticipated when I engaged DuneNectarWebExpert services. The process was challenging, as these fraudsters actively resisted efforts to recover my scammed crypto funds successfully. At the end of everything, it was all a success, and I am forever grateful to my patient and the team of DUNENECTARWEBEXPERT for their aid in my life and my family’s. Please deal with DUNENECTARWEBEXPERT directly via their officials:
