the arthouse PHILOSOPHY
Arthouse Tattoo is recognised as one of the leading custom tattoo studio’s in Austin, TX. We see tattoos as an art form and tattooers as artists. Being trusted to permanently decorate someone’s skin with ink shouldn’t be treated as a task but rather as a privilege and an honor that always needs to be carried out with patience, kindness and respect.

A chance moment in a bookstore changed everything. Flipping through a tattoo photography book sparked a lifelong passion that still lives on my shelf today. More than 20 years later, that curiosity has grown into a career shaped by constant learning, observation, and practice. From tattooing my very first piece on myself to working across Greece, internationally, and now in the U.S., my journey has always been guided by one thing — a love for turning art into something people carry for life.
