Asa Ora is an illustrator and tattoo artist currently based in Brooklyn, NY. In their work, they attempt to blend influences of contemporary design, impressionist and nouveau painting, early 1900’s illustration, and experimental comics - but they primarily end up drawing lots of hair and big sleeves. They are always available for work, commission, and collaboration.
