If you were born in the â80s or â90s, collecting stickers was probably a big part of your childhood. Whether you stuck them to your school locker or decorated your walls, thereâs something so nostalgic about sticker-clad surfaces. Canadian tattoo artist Luke Cormier allows you to commemorate our past love of colorful decals with his cartoon-inspired tattoos. Each one looks just like stickers that could peel off your skin.
From Mario Kart characters to Furbee, Cormier has inked pretty much every iconic character from our childhoods. He renders each design using colorful ink and graphic lines, allowing them to pop from his clientsâ skin. âEveryone said my tattoos looked like stickers,â Cormier told My Modern Met. âSo it just made sense to add a white background and make them look like actual real stickers.â
Since specializing in sticker tattoos, Cormier has refined the art. Along with white borders, each trick-of-the-eye design features clever shading and realistic âpaperâ creases. If you ever meet someone with one of his tattoos, youâll definitely want to reach out to see if it comes off. Trust us thoughâtheyâre 100% permanent!
Check out some of Cormierâs sticker tattoos below. If you love his work, you can book an appointment with him via Instagram.
