Carlo Amen is a talented tattoo artist who creates amazing effects with limited colors and shapes. With only a few colors and several carefully placed lines, he achieves what many can only hope for—creating recognizable work in his own unique style. His main inspiration comes from people and nature, so most of his works feature faces, bodies, or elements from nature. Of course, he also fulfills his clients’ wishes, but always stays true to his style.

Amen comes from a small French village, from an artistic family that encouraged his creativity from when he was a kid. Before he decided on living in Paris, he traveled for years and explored his artistic style. Today, he’s a co-owner of the tattoo studio called Les Maux Bleus. “Located in the heart of Paris, the studio is hidden at the back of a courtyard, under a glass roof which is a source of light and inspiration for the artists,” we read on the official website.

Make sure to check out his Instagram account where he currently has almost 60,000 followers. He posts photos of tattoos he did and it’s hard not to want one for yourself! You can see some of our favorite picks below.

The works of Italian tattoo artist Michele Volpi not only look good, but they are also educational.

Known for his blackwork style, Volpi creates tattoos inspired by science that look like they came straight from botany, astronomy, physiology, or chemistry textbook. They range from medical illustrations and anatomy works to eye-catching biological species.

Volpi’s works have captured the attention of tattoo-lovers from all around the world, who are willing to travel thousands of miles in order to get a piece from him. Some even allow him to choose the subject.

According to Volpi, his ultimate dream is to “make a scientific book with all of my conceptual scientific illustrations that I love.” Until then, check out more of his works below.

With tattoo art, oftentimes it’s not what you choose to put down on your skin it’s who you choose to do it. With so many tattoo artists, there’s a lot to choose from these days. But if you’re looking for that extra something, something, we recommend heading to Tatiana Kartomten (aka Tati Compton).

With a whopping 260k followers on Instagram, she’s sort of a celebrity when it comes to stick-n-poke tattoos. A self-taught tattoo artist (but aren’t they all?), most of her early clients had never even heard of stick-n-poke – a traditional form of body art that involves using a sharp point and some ink. “I always liked that it’s a lowbrow art form,” observed Compton in an interview with Amadeus.

According to Kartomten, she gave and received her first tattoo when she and her friend hand-poked each other’s fingers. “I started with friends at home in San Francisco,” she recalled. “We wanted to do it then and there, and I had sewing needles and India ink. I became a professional over a long period of time.”

Working out of Saved Tattoo in LA’s Arts District, these days Compton only takes bookings a month in advance. “I’ve never wanted recognition,” she admits, “which is why tattooing is great because it’s for someone else.”

How many times have you heard the question “What will you be when you grow up?” An actor, astronaut, ballerina or maybe a doctor? Well, this 5th grader dreams of becoming a tattoo artist, and he practices every day.

Michigan-based Thomas Spring also known as Bubba comes from an artistic family, his father is a musician and drummer, whilst his mother is a fine art and fantasy photographer, so his passion for art came naturally.

“Along with making comics and face painting, I think tattoos are another way for him to create by also making other people happy,” Thomas’s mother Katie Eklund said in an interview with Bored Panda.

“One day, he came home from school and said, ‘Mom can I give you a tattoo?’ I agreed. And then we set up a station for him with gel pens and a tip jar, where he charged me 50 cents for each tattoo I got. Then his siblings all wanted one.”

After she made a post about her son’s work, the reaction from people was more than amazing. From tattoo artists wanting to collaborate with him, to kind people writing him letters and supporting his passion.

Ayhan Karadag is a Turkish tattoo artist best-known for his beautiful minimal and colorful tattoo designs. His passion for art started when he was only 11 years old and for him, art is his fun, his culture, his lover, his ritual, his everything.

During his artistic journey, the Istanbul-based Karadag experimented with different kinds of art. He made ancient Greek musical instruments, clay, and wooden sculptures, played with watercolors, and draw with pencil. However, he discovered that his true love is doing art on the human body.

“While making art, I realized that a person’s body is the most valuable material and that I want to make people happy when they look at my work on their bodies…” the artist shared on Bored Panda. “I don’t think there’s anything more gratifying than carrying the fairy-tale design that one imagines in his body all his life.”

When doing his magic, he loves to tell the fairy-tale stories which happen in our dreams, he creates beautiful stories fusioned with nature and animals.

He documents his work on Instagram where he has attracted almost 100k followers. Scroll down and check out his work below.

A post shared by Jenna Bouma (@slowerblack) on

Now, with more than 100k followers on Instagram people are standing in line to get tattoed by the master of hand-poking, known online as “Slower Black”.

“When clients come in, I already have a good idea of what they want, because at that point we’ll have already emailed or talked about it over the phone,” she says. “Then I draw up the design and get the A-OK from the client before making a stencil. Once the stencil is made, I put it onto the person’s skin, and we decide on a placement that they like. Then we make it happen. The setup is clean and sterile, and everything is the same setup as it is with a machine, except for the tools I’m using.”

A palm-sized tattoo takes between 1-2 hours, a hand-sized one takes 3 hours but back pieces can take up until 40 hours. Judging by the finished result, the struggle is well worth it:

Sasha O’Kharin is a tattoo artist from St. Petersburg who works as a guest tattoo artist all over the world. He is also the owner of the tattoo studio “Blackout Tattoo Collective” where he works with six other talented artists.  O’Kharin’s style is exclusively realistic portraits and so far he has really mastered this skill. He began learning tattoo art when he was 24 years old and before becoming an independent artist he worked as a teacher. The only portraits he refuses to draw on people are their family’s portraits. During the last six years, O’Kharin has built great popularity. So far, he has earned sponsorship from a number of tattoo shops and companies like Odin Tattoo Shop and Kwadron Cartridges. He began sharing his work on Instagram in 2014, and has so far reached a number of 270k followers.

One of the most decorated part of the human body are the ears. Both women and men often put jewelry on them, sometimes more than one earring per ear. It’s the least painful when you put earrings in the ear lobes and the most painful when you put them on the cartilage. The same rules go for inking – if you are tired of losing and pairing your earrings, maybe this is a solution for you! 

Since tattooing our bodies has been growing as a trend, ears, as the most popular body part to be decorated, haven’t been excluded from it. Minimal tattoos seem to be a favorite when it comes to ear tattooing, and since the surface is small, it usually comes down to geometrical placements and floral designs. Some people ink directly the skin of the ears, while others put tattoos behind the ear. Either way, it looks amazing! 

Celebrities who proudly wear ear tattoos are Cara Delevingne, Miley Cirus and Rihanna, and these look particularly elegant on them, although men wear them just as well. On the downside, the making of these tattoos can be very painful and unpleasant. 

We’ve collected some examples to show you how beautiful ear tattoos can be!

Daisy Watson sort of stumbled into the art of tattoo making after her friends taught her how to use a tattoo machine. Realizing her simple, minimalist drawings would translate perfectly into tattoos, Watson took it from there, mastering her craft by tattooing her legs.

“I wear many tattoos myself. Mostly on my legs, because that’s when I started practicing before tattooing other people,” she shared in an interview in German with femtastics. “I do not wear tattoos on my arms or other obvious spots, as you can see. So I’m not the classic tattoo artist cliché. My grandmother knows nothing about my tattoos,” she added.

Inspired by Picasso’s inked portraits, Cocteau’s line drawings, and Jean Arp’s use of organic shapes, the Berlin-based tattoo artist uses thin black lines to create minimal surrealist works. “My drawings are never too serious or boring,” she stressed. “At least I hope so. I would call my style surrealistic.”

“I like to paint vases or hands. Basically, I try to combine different, mostly contradictory things in one picture. That result is always exciting. But faces are my absolute favorite motif,” she added. Whatever her creations are, they always maintain and an element of the absurd.

Take a look for yourself.

He began sharing his work on Instagram in 2014, and has so far reached a number of 270k followers.  

O’Kharin’s tattoos demand a very high level of detail-oriented work. His work is so precise when it comes to colors and shadows, it’s as if it’s not skin he’s working on! There is a large series of famous portraits O’Kharin has worked on and we singled out some of them for you to enjoy!

One of the most decorated part of the human body are the ears. Both women and men often put jewelry on them, sometimes more than one earring per ear. It’s the least painful when you put earrings in the ear lobes and the most painful when you put them on the cartilage. The same rules go for inking – if you are tired of losing and pairing your earrings, maybe this is a solution for you! 

Since tattooing our bodies has been growing as a trend, ears, as the most popular body part to be decorated, haven’t been excluded from it. Minimal tattoos seem to be a favorite when it comes to ear tattooing, and since the surface is small, it usually comes down to geometrical placements and floral designs. Some people ink directly the skin of the ears, while others put tattoos behind the ear. Either way, it looks amazing! 

Celebrities who proudly wear ear tattoos are Cara Delevingne, Miley Cirus and Rihanna, and these look particularly elegant on them, although men wear them just as well. On the downside, the making of these tattoos can be very painful and unpleasant. 

We’ve collected some examples to show you how beautiful ear tattoos can be!

Daisy Watson sort of stumbled into the art of tattoo making after her friends taught her how to use a tattoo machine. Realizing her simple, minimalist drawings would translate perfectly into tattoos, Watson took it from there, mastering her craft by tattooing her legs.

“I wear many tattoos myself. Mostly on my legs, because that’s when I started practicing before tattooing other people,” she shared in an interview in German with femtastics. “I do not wear tattoos on my arms or other obvious spots, as you can see. So I’m not the classic tattoo artist cliché. My grandmother knows nothing about my tattoos,” she added.

Inspired by Picasso’s inked portraits, Cocteau’s line drawings, and Jean Arp’s use of organic shapes, the Berlin-based tattoo artist uses thin black lines to create minimal surrealist works. “My drawings are never too serious or boring,” she stressed. “At least I hope so. I would call my style surrealistic.”

“I like to paint vases or hands. Basically, I try to combine different, mostly contradictory things in one picture. That result is always exciting. But faces are my absolute favorite motif,” she added. Whatever her creations are, they always maintain and an element of the absurd.

Take a look for yourself.
