Archie Hayes Portuguese tattoo artist Nouvelle Rita flawlessly converts animals into an assemblage of geometric shapes and clean lines. Typically without of shading or color, the artist’s designs are created from a minimalistic perspective and, despite their simplicity, Rita’s tattoos are anything but average. It’s almost as if she’s able to see the world through a Cubist lens when coming up with a brand new sketch. While the body art enthusiast does focus on line work, these contours don’t fight against the body’s natural curves. Instead, Rita can find a balance between boldly straight lines and elegant curvature. In establishing harmony amidst nature, geometry, and the human body, the tattoo artist demonstrates that her particular craft is expertly unique.
