Brian Parrillo's Tattoo Portfolio

At Ethereal Tattoo Gallery in Durham, NC, Brian Parrillo crafts extraordinary custom black and grey tattoos. Every piece of art that Brian creates is fully custom, ensuring that no two tattoos are ever replicated. This commitment to originality means that each tattoo is a personal masterpiece, designed to reflect the individuality and spirit of each client.

Fully Custom Tattoo Designs

Brian specializes in both commissioned designs and his own original creations. Whether you have a specific concept in mind or want a design born entirely from Brian's artistic vision, your tattoo will be a one-of-a-kind work of art.

Every tattoo Brian creates is fully custom—no flash, no repeats, and no pre-made designs. He approaches tattoo creation in two distinct ways:

• Commissions: If you have a clear idea or subject matter, Brian will work with you to bring it to life in his signature style. This option is perfect if you’re envisioning something specific, like a portrait of a loved one, a cherished animal, or a design that holds personal meaning.

• Signature Designs: These designs come entirely from Brian's imagination—concepts he has dreamed up and is excited to create. Inspired by things like striking art, patterns in nature, or subjects he’s passionate about, these tattoos allow Brian to push his creative boundaries and craft something truly unique for your canvas.

Whether you’re commissioning a tattoo based on your vision or trusting Brian to create a Signature Design, you can be confident you’ll receive a custom piece of art that’s tailored specifically to you.
