Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Logan started drawing at the age of 6 years old. Throughout his youth, he had great teachers who pushed him to become a better artist and to take risks with his art. At the age of 12 he was received the honor of having one of his drawings displayed in the Brooklyn Museum. At 14 he met tattoo artist Tony Perez and fell in love with the culture of tattooing. Perez tattooed out of Manhattan and quickly offered Logan an apprenticeship, which was the beginning of Logan's tattoo career.

Logan is known for his black and grey and photo-realism techniques and is always pushing his style of tattooing to new levels. From a very young age, Logan has been attracted to and inspired by nature and the world around him. He grew up watching “Wild America” and “The Joy of Painting”. Today, Logan’s artistic influences include Bob Ross, traditional Japanese Ukiyo-e prints, H.R Giger, Clive Barker, his good friend, Wolfredo Soto, and “life itself”. He is now becoming one of New York City's best cover up tattoo artist, expertly adapting and innovating to meet and exceed expectations on even the toughest challenges by tapping into the vast knowledge, experience, and techniques he has developed over his now +25-year career.

Logan believes in pushing himself and others to the next level of what can be done with tattoo ink.
Finally, at The Hidden Rose NYC, The Studio will reflect the Owners' love of literature and the impact it has had on their lives as avid readers. Much of Logan's artwork in the past has been inspired by his passion for characters and concepts found in all types of literature. The Studio aesthetic will reflect that passion in its design with subtle reminders of brilliantly written imagery in their favorite literary works.
