My name is Ettore and I am from Turin but, by choice, I have
spent most of the last few years traveling the world.
After studying as a designer of graphic publicity I left my city and
worked for a long time in tourist resorts as a scenographer.
It has been an exciting experience that has allowed me to travel
and meet many people.
Once back in Italy, together with my partner, we opened an
art studio where we designed scenery for
RAI and MEDIASET TELEVISION and for Commercial Centres.
One day, whilst traveling for work purposes in Brazil, my attention was caught by a publicity insert in a local tattoo magazine- "Kit
para tatuagem".
I must admit that tattooing had always fascinated me, nevertheless the technique gave me the impression of being difficult and
mysterious!
The temptation was too strong, so I bought myself the kit and with advice from a friend who was a tattooist I learned the basics and
my confidence in this art was reinforced.
I don't know if Brazilians are brave or foolish but it is a fact that I started to tattoo full time.
When I returned to Italy I met Alessandro Doria of the "Alessandro Doria Tattoo Studio" in Casale Monferrato with whom I started a profitable
collaboration which improved both my technique and style. After some time Alessandro introduced me to Claudio Pittan and I started
to collaborate also with "Pittan Tattoo" of Milan.
Between 2007 and 2008 I've been in South Beach (Miami), where i lived for 6 months and where I worked in the tattoo studios:
"MOSH PITT tattoo" , "THE INDUSTRY tattoo" and "SALVATION tattoo lounge".
From January 2009 Ill work at "Iron cross tattoo" Santa Barbara
