A Dorito chip, a smiling fireball and an alien head are three pieces of Athena's work.
requires patience, a steady hand and an artistic mind. And it is usually done by adults.Athena Castillo is likely the youngest tattoo artist in San Antonio and works at Nite Owl Tattoo Studio, which is owned by her grandmother Diane Castillo, who said there is a"super long" waitlist for her granddaughter. The studio is on Fredericksburg Road, northwest of downtown.
"I've owned the tattoo shop for almost 10 years; she was born and is being raised in the industry," Diane Castillo told the Express-News.In an email, the grandmother said Athena has always loved art, including drawing, coloring and painting. At age 3, Athena was able to draw an image on a cellphone without help tracing it, Diane Castillo said. She described it as"so amazing" for someone that age.
Under the stewardship of artist D.J. Ramirez, Athena has completed 12 tattoos since the age of 6, including a Dorito chip, a smiling fireball and an alien head. The $710 she has made for her work has gone toward squish mallows, pop-its, art supplies for science projects, her grandmother said."It feels amazing to help her learn this skill at such a young age," Ramirez wrote in an email.
He said she is not yet ready to delve into more complex and intricate pieces, but he believes she will only get better as they continue to work together. Most customers do not have an issue with Athena's age, but one person did call the health department.
