Those years of steadfast learning and hard work paid off. He gained outstanding skills in the art of realism tattoos, especially in photorealistic portraits. One of the most unforgettable moments in his life was winning his first portrait prize.

Why Paulo Chose Quantum Tattoo Ink
Paulo values his entire journey in the tattoo industry and looks forward to continuing to grow as an artist and push the boundaries of tattooing. When we asked Paulo why he chose Quantum as a partner in his journey, he said “I decided to start tattooing with Quantum ink mainly because of the results I can get on a healed work, and also because of its incredible application and vibrant colors, it means I can work better with the grays I create and thus give a much more realistic appearance to the tattoos I create.” Paulo uses only Quantum EU REACH-Compliant Gold Label tattoo ink.
