Studio: Encre Tattoo studio
Style: New School

Marco Pepe has a love for all things illustration which started from a young age, today he’s managed to turn that love into a career.

Marco’s main inspiration is his client’s stories as he likes to interpret their emotions and experiences in a surrealistic way. He describes his work as a fundamental part of his life that gives him the opportunity to turn experiences into illustrations.

Some of Marco’s favourite artists are the likes of Walter Montero & A.D. Pancho as he likes artists that go beyond normal classic styles. 

Marco’s advice to new artists is:

“I would recommend observing other artists, drawing a lot and finding a studio where you can grow in a proper way rather than being self-taught.”
