Michael “Diddily-Widdily” Adelstein
I grew up in a small farm town in Washington, just underneath the Canadian border. I learned to tattoo in 2011, apprenticing at Old School Tattoo in Bellingham, then moved to Seattle a few years later, and have been tattooing in Bellevue for the last 6 years. Outside of work, my main passions are mountain climbing, snowboarding, painting, and quality time with my family.
Artistically, I've had a tendency to focus on animal, floral, and nature based tattoos and artwork but I'm actively trying to work on my human anatomy to broaden my range. Stylistically, I gravitate towards realism, new school, trash polka, and watercolor designs but try to adjust my style to whatever's best for that client. I feel blessed to get to create art for a living and to explore the beautiful northwest in my free time. Too blessed to be stressed :)
