Elaborate Watercolor Tattoos

This Artist Creates Elegant Tattoos to Resemble Watercolor Paintings

— August 23, 2015 — Art & Design
Portuguese tattoo artist Victor Montaghini adds a truly unique style to the art of tattooing by creating watercolor tattoos. This artist uses thin outlines combined with a watercolor effect to create a painting-inspired piece of art. Each image that is inked into a person's skin looks as though it was washed on with elegant strokes of a paintbrush.

Each of the watercolor tattoos Victor Montaghini creates seems to be emotionally enhanced with the textural appeal of the watery ink. His work often displays portraits that focus on women. However, his abilities are not restricted.

Each tattoo this artist creates is displayed with a minimalist tone, yet the intricacy of each piece is truly beautiful. The soft-colored hues are relevant to the emotional aspect and contribute to the overall structural detail of the tattoos.
