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!

    Not long ago, I hired a programmer to recover crypto assets, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I gained deeper insight into the technology and cybersecurity realm and learned that with the right developer, almost any problem can be solved. I feel obliged to share a trustworthy programmer with anyone who has fallen prey to a Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency fraud. When I attempted to withdraw the $157,000 I had invested with an investment firm, I encountered numerous issues and was unable to retrieve my funds, despite assistance from purported Bitcoin miners. Since all my deposits were made using various cryptocurrencies that are difficult to trace, I continued to pursue recovery. Fortunately, with the assistance of Dune Nectar Web Expert, I was able to recover my funds. I commend the Dune Nectar team for their skill and professionalism.

    I invested with a Crypto broker without proper research to know what I was hoarding my hard-earned money into, only to find out it was a hoax and sham. I invested over $180,000 USD estimated to be 6.3 BTC. I was unable to make any withdrawals out of my initial deposits let alone the gains he claimed I have earned even after meeting the bogus fees and charges he is always requesting. Fortunately, I got to know about Recovery Hacker101 Bitcoin recovery programmers through research and positive reviews on Google. After a couple of hours consulting with them, all my funds were recovered including my profits. I can’t thank these guys enough for making me not another prey to these scammers. Thank you RECOVERYHACKER101.

    A terrible financial shock hit me hard. I lost $860,000 in a fake crypto scheme. Things looked good until I tried to cash out my earnings. Suddenly, my account vanished into thin air. I told the police many times, but help never showed up. Despair washed over me; I felt totally beaten. Then, I found Sylvester Bryant Intelligence. Right away, they were skilled and honest about the whole thing. They looked deep into my situation. They tracked where the stolen funds went. They fought hard for me every step of the way. To my great surprise, they got my money back. I thought that was impossible. I owe them so much for their hard work and truthfulness. Sylvester Bryant Intelligence restored my peace.

    I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago. For over two years, I relied on Levodopa and several other medications, but unfortunately, the symptoms kept getting worse. The tremors became more noticeable, and my balance and mobility started to decline quickly. Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try a herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic.
    Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My movements became smoother, the tremors subsided, and I felt steadier on my feet. Incredibly, I also regained much of my energy and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years.If you or a loved one is struggling with Parkinson’s disease, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.

  • Westley Small: October 27, 2025

    I was once devastated by the terrible results of a cryptocurrency fraud, which left me feeling hopeless. I know from my experience that it is a real nightmare. An online investing platform basically held my Bitcoin deposit, which was a sizable figure, hostage. I had expected large returns, but I had not realized the painful experience that was about to occur. My initial excitement eventually turned to agony when I discovered that the platform I had trusted was nothing more than a cunning scam designed to trick gullible people who were enthusiastic about the cryptocurrency market, leaving us feeling exposed, duped, and difficult to trust in the future. When I started a money recovery quest, I came across RECOVERY HACKER101, a group of professionals with a focus on asset recovery that are committed to helping victims locate and retrieve their stolen money. Since I had previously read that bitcoin transactions are irretrievable and untraceable, the procedure of getting my lost Bitcoin back sounded overwhelming. But RECOVERY HACKER101 has shown that this idea is false. I was thrilled to hear that my lost Bitcoin had been successfully recovered, despite the fact that the recovery process was complex. To anyone who could be in a similar terrible circumstance, I implore you to keep hope alive and look up RECOVERY HACKER101 on Google. For helpful crypto recovery counsel, I suggest getting in touch with recoveryhacker101@gmail.com
