Tatuagens peba, or, if translated, trash tattoos: this is what this Brazilian tattoo artist likes to call her unusual and contemporary designs. For several years, Helen Fernandes has been proving to us that the lack of drawing skills doesn't actually mean anything when it comes to being creative. 

The woman currently has over 153K followers and probably many more clients that wish to be inked just by her. It's not surprising, as her art is very unique and captivating. Her chosen style is quite similar to the "Bad Painting" trend that was popular back in the day, which quite frankly also seems to be coming back. 

These days the creative world likes to challenge everyone and is all about breaking boundaries, which is why more and more people are starting to see the true beauty in what some might call a poor artistic judgement. 

Bored Panda has been following Helena's creative journey for a while, which is why you can click here and here to check her previous work.

    From this tattoo, I’m beginning to suspect she can draw a lot better than she ‘tries’ to. It’s a gimmick to stand out perhaps?

    Does anyone know who he is? When I tried reverse image search, I got "bad Freddie Mercury" and I found an Indian soccer player named Socorro, but he doesn't look like this.

    The tattoo kind of reminds me of Freddie Mercury with very bad hair and uneven mustache

    Not nearly as successful as the imaginative tats. The arms and hands are a total failure.

    I love him! He looks shocked though. I wonder if she's working from photographs.
