The Mala Suerte Compania was created back in 2002 by Mexican-American tattoo artist, Johnny “Mala Suerte” Garza. Johnny started tattooing out in the midwest area and ever since he started tattooing he has also pursued other creative ways to express his creativity. Although Johnny is well known as a tattoo artist, graphic design and photography can also be added to the list of creative outlets that Johnny is capable of. Having family ties in southern Texas and the midwest, Johnny has been constantly working out of both regions, giving him the exposure that many tattooers dream of with the ability to go back and forth from tattoo shop to tattoo shop.
The Mala Suerte Compania started up from Johnny’s nickname, and then Johnny teamed up with Job Moscot Cortes of Explicit Ink, there was a creative fire as soon as these two artists started to colaborate on projects. Johnny decided to make it official and added the Compania to his name. Johnny and Job have a great understanding of each others style, talents and strengths and have a great chemistry together; they are the creative forces behind Mala Suerte Compania.
