Discover the techniques to create freehand lettering in cursive and learn how to tattoo it on different parts of the body
Lettering and tattooing are two art forms that often come together as one. The first helps you express yourself with an elegant and visually striking design, while the second transforms it into an unerasable memory. Join tattoo artist Delia Vico and learn how to ink your letters directly on skin following body contour and volume.
Delia has nearly two decades of experience in tattooing and specializes in cursive lettering and calligraphy. In this course, she teaches how to form single letters, compose words, and precisely draw them on skin to create a unique, balanced tattoo.
Bring your message to life and create a composition that leaves its mark.

After graduating, she continued her education at the Accademia Albertina di Belle Arti in Torino followed by the Accademia Linguistica di Belle Arti in Genoa.
She got her first taste of ink at the age of 16 and immediately knew she wanted to pursue tattooing as a career. From there, she began drawing sketches and gradually perfecting the art of lettering and calligraphy.

Thanks for the course, it was great to learn how to do lettering tattoos. Your explanation was excellent and
clear. I am focused on doing more old Slavic language so I am excited to begin the process.
