Have you ever wondered if you could turn your passion into a successful career? That’s exactly what Devendra Palav did.
From a conventional background in Graphic Designing, he made the bold decision to follow his love for art, one that truly paid off.
Growing up in Mumbai, Devendra always had a creative side. He loved designing and drawing, but like many, he followed the conventional path of a stable career as a Graphic Designer. However, his heart was set on something else. The turning point came in 2016 when he discovered Aliens School of Tattoo Art, a place that could nurture his passion for art and give him the tools to succeed in the tattooing world.
“I knew Aliens would be just the right place for me. But financial constraints were holding me back, and yet I didnt let it stop me from following my dreams,” says Devendra.
Tattooing was not a typical career choice for someone like Devendra, and his family was initially unsure about the path he had chosen. But despite the challenges, Devendra joined Aliens School of Tattoo Art, and his life took a dramatic turn.
“The guidance and personalized mentorship at Aliens School of Tattoo Art didn’t just teach me tattooing, it transformed me into an artist capable of making my mark on the world," he says. He put himself in the curriculum, balancing his job and studies, and evolved as one of the school’s top students.
As he developed his skills, Devendra’s talent began to shine. His unique Mandala and Geometry tattoo art designs gained attention, and before long, he was tattooing celebrities like Virat Kohli, Tilak Varma, and Riyan Parag.
His exceptional work earned him recognition in the tattoo community, including the Best Collaboration Award at the Goa Tattoo Festival and Runner-up for Best Realism at the Heartwork Tattoo Festival.
“As I mastered my skills, my work began to attract attention from celebrities. The recognition I received, including awards at conventions, proved that my passion and dedication had truly paid off.”
Today, Devendra is a celebrity tattoo artist, earning over 24 LPA, an income that far exceeds the average starting salary in conventional jobs.
"Today, I am proud to be one of the top 3 most expensive tattoo artists in India, a position I earned through so much hard work, overcoming every obstacle to turn my passion into a legacy."
Tattooing offers a unique career path, one that combines creativity, financial freedom, and the ability to create lasting, impactful work. While many jobs may restrict your creative potential, tattooing allows you to express yourself fully and build a strong personal brand. As Devendra’s story shows, with the right training and dedication, it is possible to achieve both recognition and financial success.
