He was initially invited to Germany by a client wanting a tattoo but began to help out in a freshly opened studio. Super Timor continued the trip around the region tattooing people, as his fame started to grow. Today he is crossing the map between Belgrade, Berlin, and London.
Super Timor is one of these artists, who’ll tell you your idea is bad and your design sucks. He prefers to ink people, who have a clear idea of what they want and that want to have something unique. If you go to his shop and ask for a rose tattoo, you’ll leave disappointed. He feels comfortable drawing strongly graphic designs, and it’s quite visible in his work.
Super Timor believes the color in colorful tattoos puts a barrier in front of him. He is positive that colors are stopping him from creating sharp, contrast and eye-catching designs. As a fan of black ink, Super Timor supports the idea that black ink goes deeply into the skin, lasts longer and ages better. According to his practice as a tattooist, color tattoos look like blurred spots after some time.
