[2017] 12th Brazilian Graphic Design Biennial. Category: Poster One-off projects. "Londrina Art Week". Featured project. Organized by ADG Brasil.
In 2018, at the age of 30, I started tattooing as an apprentice at the Pioneiros studio in Londrina, where I learned not only the technique but also experienced the tattoo culture. I soon fell in love with the world of classic traditional american tattooing, also known as old school, which stands out for its firm lines and solid colors. This style is my focus of study and work, in which I have specialized. Tattooing further brought out my illustrative and artistic side, and combined with my experience as a designer, I was able to develop my unmistakable style, traditional but not too much, with a vibrant and different color palette beyond black and gray.
Since I began this journey as a tattoo artist, I have made great friends and served many people throughout Brazil. I currently live in Ubatuba and do not have a permanent studio, but I am always traveling for work and exhibitions. Providing a great experience in addition to tattoos with intention and quality is my main goal.
Traditional, but not too much
Timeless themes that combine classic and modern, striving for boldness and authenticity.
Whether through the intensity of the black ink or the vibrant charm of the colors, classic designs are both a reference to the past and an extension of the future.
You can get one of my designs tattooed, or I'll be happy to bring your idea to life.
