Inspiring Conversations with Sraw And Natyli of Three Eyed Art Collective

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sraw And Natyli.

Hi Sraw and Natyli, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Sraw launched Three Eyed Art Collective in 2017, and shortly after brought on Natyli. What started as a small clothing brand—built from scratch with no experience outside our day jobs as a tattoo artist and body piercer—quickly grew into something more powerful. We poured our hearts into perfecting our craft and began traveling across the U.S., showcasing both our fashion and our body art at over 20 tattoo conventions and guest spots, from Hawaii to Florida.

In 2024, we took a bold step into the fashion world by entering our first emerging designer battle—and won crowd favorite. Our handmade pieces, which ranged from dresses to bulletproof vests, turned heads and proved that artists from the tattoo and piercing world could hold their own in high-end couture. We even debuted our first shoe line during that show, making a statement that was both edgy and unforgettable.

Since then, we’ve continued pushing boundaries, completing two more successful fashion shows and expanding our creative reach. Today, we’re working on opening a new tattoo shop and a brick-and-mortar retail space for Three Eyed Art Collective, where people can shop our merchandise and order custom handmade pieces. Everything we create is made with love and passion—crafted by hand, by us. Our mission has always been to stay raw, authentic, and connected to our roots.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It’s definitely not been an easy or smooth road—but every challenge has come with its rewards. Traveling to over 20 conventions across the U.S. sounds exciting, but the reality is, not every event was a success financially. Some shows cost us more than we made, and there were moments when it felt like the sacrifices outweighed the payoff.

But even in those moments, we gained something valuable—connections, experiences, and lessons that took us places money could never buy. There were tough days, plenty of setbacks, and times we had to question everything. But as my father always told me, “If it were easy, everyone would do it.” I carry that reminder with me in everything I do—it keeps me grounded and pushing forward.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
Three Eyed Art Collective is a streetwear-driven brand known for its bold graphic T-shirts, custom apparel, and artistic edge rooted in tattoo and body modification culture. We specialize in printing on everything from pants, shirts, and jackets to bags and sweaters—but our creativity doesn’t stop there. We work with a wide variety of materials including leather, vinyl, fabric, buttons, and even candles. Our production spans DTF printing, embroidery, and hand-sewn details, with each piece crafted or designed by us personally—Sraw, a professional tattoo artist, and Natyli, a skilled body piercer.

We’ve collaborated with musicians, rappers, and athletes, but what truly sets us apart is our perspective. Coming from the world of body art, we don’t just make clothing—we create pieces that interact with the human form. Much like a tattoo or piercing, we believe clothing should enhance the body, not just sit on it. Our approach is all about accentuating personality and energy. As we like to say: “It’s not the clothes that make the person—it’s the person that brings the clothes to life.”

One of our most iconic designs was the “AK Calligraphy” shirt—an underground favorite that’s since been discontinued (but may return by popular demand). Another fan favorite is our beanie collection. Most recently, we launched a bold new series titled “F Your Favorite Fashion Designer”—a statement that reflects our rebellious spirit.

We’re especially proud of our shoe line. It’s small, intentional, and highly exclusive—never more than 30 pairs per release. Each silhouette is made from genuine leather and designed entirely in-house. We release two drops a year and plan to double that moving forward.

At the heart of everything we do is a deep respect for craftsmanship, individuality, and passion. Every stitch and every print carries that energy—and we want our customers to feel it the moment they wear our work.

Can you share something surprising about yourself?
When sraw and Natyli first met they did not like each other at all! They butted heads and always argued they still argue and butt heads but there is love behind it and passion for three eyed !!!
