Had an amazing piece done by Gui, the artist is insanely talented, but also extremely friendly and kind. Next time I’m in Berlin I will be back!

Every tattoo
begins as a line.
Blue ballpoint, paper and patience. Drawing is where the work starts — the hatching, the hesitations and the gestures that stay visible on skin.

03 — About
Drawing for tattooing is what a plate is for a meal. If you don’t have a plate, you eat on the floor.
Guillaume’s background in architecture shaped his approach to composition, structure and visual storytelling. However, he eventually left architecture in search of something he felt was missing: the freedom and immediacy of drawing by hand.
This desire became a defining part of his approach to tattooing. Every project begins with an original drawing created specifically for the person who will wear it. Whether drawn on paper or digitally on an iPad, the process always starts with his own creative work.
Rather than simply reproducing existing images or relying on ready-made designs, he prefers to reinterpret, compose and create something unique for each project.
For Guillaume, tattooing is an extension of drawing: bringing an original idea to life through a personal and expressive approach.

I enjoy witnessing Guillaume‘s art unfold, whether it’s on paper or on skin. His warm welcoming character and various techniques and different styles from water color, bright motives to detailed dark motives are amazing! Amazing artist also in free hand. 💛 recommend also if you search for a tattoo artist where you can feel safe. ☺️

Wow, that man isn't just a tattoo artist, he's a true artist! My tattoo is six years old now and looks just like it did on the first day. It's so lifelike and detailed, you feel like it's alive. A miracle. I keep getting asked if my tattoo is new... Nothing more needs to be said. Gui is not only an artist but also a truly wonderful, empathetic person. I'm proud and happy to know him.

Guillaume is a great tattoo artist! He understands to implement your wishes completely when creating a new tattoo for you. His demeanor is calm and very open and he is totally focused while working on you. I was surprised of the lack of pain I had while he was tattooing me (had my 7th tattoo with him), this also depends on the placement of your body of course, but I feel he has a great method. I am so excited to let him work further on my back! 💯 Recommendation 💚

I found Guillaume by accident when I wanted a new tattoo back in 2017. We clicked immediately, which is really important for me when it comes to a tattoo artist. It’s always a pleasure and joy to work with him, from pitching ideas to seeing the vision and design to having the finished piece of art on my skin. I trust Guillaume fully because I know how capable and talented he is. He turns my little ideas always into something stunning and the whole process is smooth and relaxing (as far as relaxing getting tattooed can be ;-)) Guillaume, you are a true artist!
