Realism & Micro-Realism Tattoos in Denver — By Serdar Bölükbaşı

Finding a Denver tattoo artist who can translate a personal story into museum-grade realism isn’t easy. Serdar Bölükbaşı focuses on black & grey realism and micro-realism tattoos, delivering pieces that read clearly up close, age gracefully, and photograph beautifully. If you value precision, patience, and a calm studio experience, you’ll feel at home here.

The Serdar Approach

Design with purpose. Every project starts with a short conversation about meaning, body placement, and long-term readability. Serdar sketches around muscle flow and joint movement so your tattoo sits naturally and heals clean.

Detail without noise. Expect balanced contrast, smooth gradients, and lifelike texture. In micro-realism, Serdar prioritizes line economy and value control so small designs still look crisp years later.

Client-first process. You’ll get transparent timelines, clear pricing ranges, and written aftercare. No surprise add-ons—just steady, professional guidance from concept to final heal.

What Serdar Specializes In

  • Black & Grey Realism: Portraits, statues, wildlife, cinematic frames, and narrative compositions with believable depth.

  • Micro-Realism: Small, refined pieces ideal for wrist, forearm (inner/outer), upper arm, ribs, sternum, and ankle.

  • Cover-Ups & Reworks: Intelligent redesigns that integrate existing ink using shape, contrast, and negative space.

How to Book (Simple & Fast)

  1. Share your idea using the booking form: style, size (inches), and dates.

  2. Attach references: up to 2 reference images and 1 placement photo to help with sizing.

Pricing, Sessions & Timing

Realism work is priced by size, placement, and detail. Small micro-realism ideas often fit in one session; larger portraits or multi-element pieces may take several sittings. You’ll receive a clear estimate during consultation, along with an honest timeline that respects healing windows.

Aftercare That Protects Your Tattoo

You’ll leave with step-by-step aftercare covering cleansing, moisturization, and sun protection. Avoid pools, tanning, and intense training while healing; apply SPF once healed to preserve contrast and keep blacks rich.
