During these days, a lot of people asked me to design a tattoo for them. So I though it was the right time to write a post about it.
English cursive and Gothik Fraktur are usually the most used typefaces. Some Chicano types are also very common.
People decide to mark their own skin with names, sentences, quotes, or just words.
In this post I wanted to show you all the typographic possibilities in tattoo art.
Let us know what you would get tattooed on the comment field!
Hi, I’m Giuseppe Salerno aka Resistenza.es, an Italian graphic designer, specializing in graphic design and web design, currently living and working in Valencia, Spain. I’ve spent more than 10 years working in creative design. I have been working in Torino, Amsterdam, Madrid, and Valencia.
I’ve studied graphic design and multimedia and as soon as I finished I went to work for a great art director in Torino, Simona Alborno. I learned a lot working with her, especially in print design. But my experience at Artmiks in Amsterdam was the best! I was there for almost a year seeing every creative project that came out of the agency… was just incredible. And of course Tierra Virtual – Valencia was the best place where to optimize my knowledge. Typography is my obsession. Actually working as Art Director at Canales.
