Ink Artist Stuns With Lifelike Embroidery Tattoos

Have you been thinking about getting inked, but just can’t find that unique style to truly make your tattoo stand out in the crowd? Get inspired by this tattoo artist’s creative technique! 

Brazilian tattoo artist Eduardo Lozano, owner of the São Paulo-based Tattoo You studio, has made a name for himself in recent years for perfecting a style now known as “embroidery tattoos.” Yes, the colorful, embroidered patch, a symbol of vintage counterculture and coolness that has had an on-again, off-again relationship with both street and high fashion for decades is making an unexpected comeback in the form of eternal skin modifications! 

Lozano says he loves doing these tats, which create a fantastic impression of a patch that has been embroidered directly on the customer’s skin, and dedicates himself to doing the best, most lifelike work possible. Judging from his increasingly popular Instagram account, his customers are more than happy with their artwork.

Many of the tattoos are of popular cartoon and movie characters, which lend themselves greatly to this style, but there are also other, more original ideas popping up among the requests. As the tattoo artist explains, he is only “at the beginning” with this approach and his best ideas are yet to come.
