About roger
I’m Roger Merling Meijer—tattoo artist, illustrator, and lifelong nerd (born 1978). I turn hand‑drawn, comic‑style linework into wearable art inspired by Japanese tattoo mythology: snakes, tigers, demons, oni & yokai—plus robots, mechs, and the occasional UFO.
Raised on Gundam, Saturday‑morning cartoons, model kits, and retro computer games, I learned to trust bold silhouettes and clean contours. Oil‑paint studies and a respect for the laws of nature keep the creatures believable—anatomy, weight, and flow. That’s why my tees read from across the room and reward you up close.
Latest Works & Influences
Born in 1978, I grew up between analog and digital—pens and oil paint first, pixels later. The era left me with a simple rule: readable shapes win. Clear silhouettes, bold lines, high contrast—so prints look crisp on fabric and age well in the wash.
Process: Hand‑Drawn First
Pencil → ink → scan → separation: clean lines built for screen print.
Oil‑paint studies: texture and light without faking it.
No AI, no clip‑art: just a nerd with pens, patience, and a metal playlist.
