Nico

I’m Nico, a tattoo artist specialising in realistic black and grey tattoos. I’m passionate about creating pieces that tell a story and leave a lasting emotional impact. I enjoy working closely with my clients to transform their ideas into unique, meaningful custom designs that they’ll be proud to wear for life. I’m always striving to grow as an artist, continually refining my technique and developing my own style. Whether it’s portraits, wildlife, mythology, or darker concepts, I dedicate my full attention to every tattoo to ensure the highest level of quality and craftsmanship. For me, tattooing is about much more than creating art. It’s about building trust, sharing a creative journey with each client, and creating timeless pieces that hold personal meaning for years to come.

Questions & Answers

Questions & answers

Where are you from? I am originally from Arica, Chile
How long have you been tattooing? I’ve been tattooing since 2020
What inspired you to become a tattoo artist? I always wanted to do something I truly loved, and since I can remember art has always been a part of my life. And it happened to be that a friend of mine back home is a tattoo artist. I had a few tattoos myself, and it always intrigued me. At the time, I was searching for more meaning in my life, so I asked him if he could take me as an apprentice and teach me the basics. He agreed, so I just packed my things and went to Chile for a year and a half to learn, and here I am.
What is your background? I studied graphic design at uni, but I have always loved drawing on paper more.
What style do you specialise in? I specialise in black and grey realism with a surrealistic twist
What do you like to do in your spare time? In my spare time, I love spending time with my daughter, practising Muay Thai, and drawing. I've recently discovered a passion for freediving, which I really enjoy, especially when I get the chance to swim with seals. I also love travelling, and I'm always on the lookout for new hobbies, experiences, and skills to learn.
What's your favourite kind of tattoo to do? I really enjoy tattooing portraits with strong expressions that carry a theme. Surreal elements, mythology, wildlife, dark concepts and just anything realistic.
What's the coolest tattoo you've done? That’s a tough question. I'd say anything that fits my style and challenges me is the coolest tattoo.
