Tom Falgayras, aka MF Creativink, is a multi-award-winning tattoo artist from France who is a dab hand at realism, whether in colour or black and grey.

His career may have gone down a different path as Tom had originally studied towards a paramedical degree, but it was only once his studies were complete that he stepped into the world of art.

After trying his hand at different artistic styles, including ultra-realistic pencil portraits and dry pastel pieces, Tom turned to tattooing after being a body art enthusiast for many years.

From practicing on silicone skin to undertaking an apprenticeship, Tom stayed true to his passion of realism, with his tattoos taking inspiration from artists like A.D. Pancho, Thomas Carli Jarlier, Steve Butcher, and Sandra Daukshta.

With a career that moved from strength to strength, including picking up a variety of awards from tattoo conventions across Europe, Tom opened his own private studio, the self-titled MF Creativink, in Valence, France.

While proficient with black and grey work, Tom’s true strength lies in his colour realism tattoos and masterpiece reproductions, which have caught the eye at conventions and on social media and have propelled the French artist to the position of being one of the finest tattooists in Europe.

To create his realistic pieces, Tom uses a variety of supplies from Killer Ink, including Spektra Rotary tattoo machines from FK Irons, Radiant Colors ink, and Tattoo Armour aftercare pads.
