My goal is to illustrate ideas in a unique way and make people proud of wearing art on their skin for the rest of their lives.

 

My name is Jose Carlos Junior I’m originally from Rio de Janeiro/Brazil and I’ve been making art my entire life. After working for more than 10 years with graphic design and illustrations I have decided to take my art from paper to the skin. My aim was from the beginning to have an unique approach to my tattoo designs and not just simply replicate content. I have studied many different styles but none struck me as harshly as fashion illustration. The expressiveness of the unfinished look of it gather everything I love about inputting your own emotions to creating art. My challenges were to adjust my art to resist time and find people as enthusiastic for a different approach to subjects that have been explored before as me.

I truly love what I do and I’m eternally grateful that my clients choose to go through the painful process to get my art permanently on their body.
