Bruno Silva

📍Lisbon, Portugal


My name is Bruno Silva, I was born in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1986, and I have been passionate about drawing since I was a child. As a kid, I used to recreate Marvel heroes and Dragon Ball characters, which sparked my interest in art. Over time, this passion led me to tattooing. I started as a self-taught artist and apprentice in a studio in Lisbon, always seeking improvement. I attended workshops with renowned artists and continued exploring different forms of art on paper, helping me develop my technique and artistic identity. After a few years, I decided to open my own private studio, consolidating my style and deepening my connection to tattooing as a means of expression.


Throughout my career, I have participated in five tattoo conventions—one in Portugal and four in the United States. In these events, I was awarded Small Tattoo in Lisbon and Best of Day in Black and Gray in Atlanta. My Black and Gray style is characterized by high contrast and rich detail, always aiming for realism and depth in my work. Currently, I work at Hood’s Ink in Lisbon and perform guest spots in the United Kingdom, expanding my experience and reaching diverse audiences. With over ten years of experience, I continue refining my art and exploring new forms of expression, always striving for evolution and innovation in my work.
