How to turn tattooing into your profession, even if you’re starting from zero

14 January 2026

For years, making a living from tattooing felt out of reach for most people.
Today, it’s not.

There are people who started with no drawing skills, no contacts, and no experience, and who now travel, work in international studios, and live freely from their art. Not because of luck — but because they chose to commit.

 

Can you imagine making a living from tattooing?

Traveling the world.
Doing work you actually enjoy.
No bosses. No fixed schedules.
Choosing your clients  and how much your time is worth.

For many people, this sounds like a dream.
For others, it’s already their reality.

Today, students from Noble Art live from tattooing, travel between countries, work as resident artists, and build careers doing what they love. Not because they got lucky but because they decided to take their life seriously.

Maybe you’ve never thought about becoming a tattoo artist.
Or maybe you have, and you left it as a “someday” idea.
Most people don’t start with everything figured out. They start with a feeling  the sense that there has to be more.

Tattooing isn’t just a skill.
It’s a tool for freedom.

Freedom to create.
Freedom to move.
Freedom to build a life without depending on a boss or a schedule you didn’t choose.

And no  this isn’t empty motivation.
This is a real path that thousands of people have already walked.

That’s where Noble Art comes in.

Not as a traditional school, but as a system designed to guide you from where you are today even if you can’t draw, even if you’ve never touched a tattoo machine, even if you’re not sure yet  toward turning tattooing into a real, sustainable career.

The key thing to understand from the start is this:
there isn’t only one way to begin.

That’s why there are two complementary paths, designed to adapt to your situation.

 Noble Art Academy (In-Studio)

Learn tattooing inside real studios, from day one
The Noble Art Academy (In-Studio) is for people who live in one of our cities (or can relocate) and want to learn tattooing from scratch, hands-on, inside real professional tattoo studios.

This isn’t classroom learning. You train inside our own tattoo studios, alongside working professionals.

It doesn’t matter if:

  • You’ve never drawn
  • You’ve never touched a tattoo machine
  • You have no experience
  • You start from zero, with structure, guidance, and real practice from day one.

What actually happens in the in-studio program?

  • You begin practicing on synthetic skin
  • You train inside our studios, not generic classrooms
  • You progress step by step until tattooing real skin, with 1-on-1 supervision
  • You work in small groups, with personalized feedback
  • You receive a professional kit + tattoo machine included
  • You leave with real fundamentals, confidence, and clarity

Where is the in-studio academy available?

Training takes place inside our studios in:

  • Miami
  • New York
  • Montreal
  • Madrid
  • Barcelona
  • Valencia
  • Málaga
  • Zaragoza

👉 This stage builds your foundation.
Here, you learn how to tattoo for real.

Noble Art House (Online)

To start from zero — or to build a real tattoo career. This is important to clarify:

Noble Art House is not only for experienced tattoo artists. It’s also a complete starting point for people with no tattoo experience at all, especially if they don’t live near our studios.

If you need flexibility, if you prefer starting from home, or if relocating isn’t an option, the online academy is a fully valid path.

In the online academy, you don’t just learn how to tattoo. You learn how to build a real career:

  • Step-by-step tattoo tutorials (beginner-friendly)
  • Live group mentoring with Matías Noble
  • Group feedback and corrections
  • How to build a strong personal brand
  • How to develop your own tattoo style
  • Real strategies to attract paying clients
  • How to retain clients long term
  • Mindset and personal development
  • A real opportunity to work with Noble Art
  • Guidance for U.S. work visa processes
  • Practical guides and downloadable resources
  • Live community chat
  • Exclusive podcasts with artists and industry experts

👉 This stage is where:

  • You stop depending on other studios
  • You learn to charge what your work is worth
  • You build your name
  • You start living only from tattooing

You don't have to choose one path or the other. This is a very common mistake.

In-person training does not replace online training, nor does online training replace in-person training.

In-person training teaches you how to tattoo, while online training teaches you how to grow, position yourself, and make a living from it. That's why they work so well together.

Many students:

  • Start with in-studio training
  • Build confidence and fundamentals
  • Continue with Noble Art House to take their career further

It’s a logical, realistic path — no empty promises.

Behind all of this is someone who’s already walked the road.  This system isn’t theoretical. It’s built from real experience by Matías Noble.

Someone who started with no money, no contacts, and no shortcuts. Who learned early that tattooing well isn’t enough if you don’t understand the industry. And who now leads one of the largest tattoo artist communities in the world.

He doesn’t teach from a pedestal. He teaches from experience.

If this resonates with you, it’s not by chance.
Maybe you feel you could be doing more.
Maybe you’re tired of courses that leave you alone after they end.
Or maybe you never thought about tattooing… until now.

No miracles are promised here. What you get is structure, guidance, and a proven system.

The commitment is yours.
The path already exists.
