About Us
The Inked Network was built for one simple reason: discovering tattoo art should feel inspiring, personal, and effortless. We are creating the first platform where tattoo collectors, artists, and studios can connect in a way that feels as natural as swiping through your favorite content and as meaningful as walking into the right studio.
My name is Joey Hamilton, and my life has been shaped by tattooing as an artist, shop owner, and advocate for others in the industry. Over the years, I've seen incredible talent on one side and collectors searching for the right artist on the other, with too many barriers standing between them.
We created The Inked Network to give the tattoo industry a true home built for artists and collectors alike. This platform is about giving back to the community that gave me purpose and opportunity, helping artists showcase their work and helping collectors find the right person to bring their ideas to life.
The Inked Network is more than a website. It's a movement to bring the tattoo world together, to make discovery easier, and to build something that elevates the craft we all love.
I built this for the artists. I built it for the collectors. I built it for the culture.
My name is Ceeze Castaneda, also known as Big Ceeze, and everything I am and have comes from God. My journey in tattooing was built through faith, hard work, sacrifice, and trusting God's timing even when the path was unclear.
Tattooing is more than art to me, it is storytelling, healing, and connection. The vision for The Inked Network was placed on my heart as a way to serve the industry with purpose, creating a platform rooted in faith, community, and respect where artists are truly seen and collectors can find the artist meant for them.
The vision for The Inked Network was placed on my heart as a way to serve the industry, not myself. I became a co-owner because I believed God was calling me to help build something bigger than one studio, one artist, or one city. A platform rooted in community, opportunity, and respect for the craft. A place where artists can truly be seen, where collectors can find the artist meant for them, and where the tattoo industry can grow stronger together.
There's an artist for every collector and a collector for every artist.
