Manu Cruz

Manu is the founder of the studio 10 Thousand Foxes Tattoo in NYC-LA, and he specializes in neotraditional and traditional tattoos. He likes to construct his tattoos with solid lines, clean shading and vibrant colors in order to ensure a long-lasting result. His favorite themes to tattoo are animals, animals & animals! Born in Madrid, Manu was adopted & raised by wild raccoons in the woods. A few years later when he came back to life among humans, he spent some time studying comic art and illustration in Barcelona where he discovered his love of the tattoo art. He has since worked as a resident in Spain, the UK, Germany and Norway before settling down in the US. He now tattoos at his studio in West Hollywood and guest spots occasionally in NYC.
