Diogo Nunes started drawing at three years old with his mother’s encouragement - as that was the only way she could keep him quiet!

“Remain loyal to your personality because it will be noticed in your work over the years.”

He got his first tattoo after his father passed away when Diogo was just 16. There, he met his future mentor Artur Figueiredo who he bonded with as Artur had also lost his father at a young age. Diogo expressed an interest in tattooing, so Artur told him to come back when he had finished school at 18. Diogo ended up falling in love with realism and hasn't looked back since.

“In realism we see the quality growing more & more everyday which motivates us to do better.”
