About the artist
Portrait of Fillipe Carvalho by the sea

Every story deserves its own work of art.

I'm Fillipe Carvalho, a Brazilian tattoo artist creating original, conceptual pieces for clients in Brazil and around the world.

Before tattooing, I spent nearly 15 years working in engineering and industry, including projects with Petrobras. I started my first business at 19, and that journey taught me the value of precision, dedication and understanding people.

Today, I bring my personal, professional and artistic experience into every project. Having tattooed in more than seven countries, I've had the privilege of meeting people from different backgrounds and turning their stories into art.

The art

Your story, translated into a piece of art.

My work combines fine line, geometry and microrealism in an approach I call Fine Art Tattoo: original, conceptual compositions created around the person who wears them.

Your story, ideas and the details that matter to you are the starting point. From there, I bring them together with my artistic vision to create an exclusive piece with meaning, balance and identity.

The creative process

Created together. Designed for you.

A meaningful tattoo begins with a conversation. I want to understand your story, your ideas and what you want your tattoo to represent.

You have the freedom to share everything you feel is important: references, memories, symbols and even ideas you're not quite sure how to bring together. I take all of that into consideration when developing your project.

From our first conversation to your tattoo session, my goal is for you to feel heard, comfortable and confident in the process. Together, we'll create a piece that feels like yours.

How it works

  1. First contact

    Send the form with your story, the placement, the approximate size, where you are and where you want to be tattooed. In Brazil you can also message me on WhatsApp.

  2. Quote

    I reply with the values for your project.

  3. Briefing call

    If you like, we schedule a video call, wherever you are, to talk through the idea and what it should mean to you.

  4. Deposit

    A deposit reserves the date, or dates, for your project.

  5. Design preview

    I present the design a few days before the session, so you know exactly what we will tattoo.

  6. Session and aftercare

    The session runs with care and comfort from start to finish. You leave with aftercare instructions and a care kit.
