Reena Pho is Skin Design Tattoo’s youngest artist and the daughter and apprentice of the renowned Robert Pho. Growing up immersed in the tattoo industry and its culture, it was only natural for Reena to follow in her father’s footsteps. She first became inspired at just 7 years old, began practicing with a machine at 16, and officially started her apprenticeship in 2021 at the age of 18. Now 21 years old, Reena has three years of professional tattooing experience.
Taking after her mentor, Reena specializes in black-and-grey realism, excelling in both large-scale and micro-realism designs. She loves collaborating with clients to create meaningful pieces they can proudly wear for life. Her favorite subjects include statues from various regions and eras (Greek, Buddhist, Roman, etc.), portraits, nature-inspired elements, and mythological themes.
Reena finds endless motivation in the incredible artists she’s surrounded by at Skin Design Tattoo. The talent and support of her peers inspire her to constantly push her work to the next level. One of her proudest milestones is being part of the legacy her father built, contributing to the family’s reputation for excellence in the tattoo industry.
Reena’s ambitions for the upcoming year include:
Reena believes in creating tattoos that reflect her dedication to excellence and her clients’ unique stories. She values collaboration and strives to ensure every piece she designs is timeless and personal. Tattooing is not just a career for Reena—it’s a legacy she is proud to carry forward, combining tradition with her fresh, innovative approach.
