“The flower tattoo on feet symbolises something new and fresh here, in Korea”

If you’ve ever gotten tattooed, you’ll know that most artist begin with a black outline. But this isn’t the case at Aro Tattoo, the Korean tattoo parlour that employs tattooist_silo. Silo uses soft colours devoid of black outlines to give the impression of a watercolour painting.

“I use watermark or very light ink (mixed with water). I do very rough sketch with it first than go into detail” Silo explained Bored Panda. Silo describes his styles as “stories”. “There are lots of stories around these tattoos. People tell me what and why they want and I turn their stories into designs. I put my heart even into the smallest tattoos” he told us.
