Our new edition features Derek Turcotte on the cover. From his earliest childhood drawings to becoming an established artist and studio owner in the Canadian Rockies, he has built a strong and ever-evolving identity. His work — where symbolism, ancestral influences, comic art, and fantasy universes converge — transcends tattooing to become a powerful and recognizable visual language of its own. Derek doesn’t just create images: he builds worlds.

We also present Grigorii Butrin .tattoo , who has turned black and grey realism into an exercise of rigor and sensitivity. His meticulous approach and structural understanding of anatomy allow him to develop pieces of remarkable aesthetic strength, executed with technical precision and a mature artistic vision.

In addition, we highlight Yerae , a Korean artist specializing in botanical cover-ups, awarded at major conventions in the United States and Canada, who transforms past marks into delicate floral compositions filled with meaning.

Likewise, this special issue features articles by artists from diverse backgrounds and introduces the participants of the upcoming DGN International Competition 2026.dgntattoomag
