Boog Star, the Mexican-American tattoo artist based in Dallas, left an indelible mark on the world of tattooing. Starting his career at the young age of 14, Boog quickly rose to prominence as the King of Script, known for his intricate and artistic lettering styles.

Over his twenty-two years in the industry, Boog's talent took him from the streets to working with some of today's biggest stars. His unique style and attention to detail set him apart, earning him a reputation as one of the best in the business.

In February 2021, the tattoo world mourned the loss of Boog after a courageous battle with cancer. His passing came just weeks after undergoing a laryngectomy, a surgery that took away his ability to speak but not his ability to inspire.

The outpouring of love and support from the tattoo community highlighted the impact Boog had on those around him. Not only was he a phenomenal artist, but he was also known for his generosity and kindness towards others.

As we reflect on the life and legacy of Boog Star, we remember not only his incredible talent but also the way he touched the lives of so many. His artistry will live on in the tattoos he created and the memories he left behind.

Rest in peace, Boog Star. Your legacy will continue to inspire generations of tattoo artists to come.
