My name is Matthew Kurtyka, also known as The Sacred Creative. I am a tattoo artist and musician based in St. Petersburg, FL, specializing in black and grey, sacred geometry and ornamental adornments.

Originally from Harrisburg, PA, I’ve been drawn to art and music since childhood, but it wasn’t until my late twenties that I committed fully to a creative life. After moving to Florida, I co-founded Plant Love Ice Cream, a plant-based shop. This rooted me in the St. Pete community before stepping into my life as a tattoo artist.
