Wild at Heart Tattoo is the oldest tattoo shop in Brisbane and one of the most well-known tattoo studios in Australia. We're a family run business founded by Bernhard Olszewski who began tattooing in 1980.

​

In 1983, Bernie opened the first tattoo studio on the Gold Coast in Burleigh Heads before moving to Southport. He later moved up to Brisbane to work with Moe Webley at his studio - Expert Tattoo - in Stones Corner. Expert was one of the three original tattoo studios in Brisbane in the eighties, and enjoyed a colourful history. Moe eventually moved the shop up to Cairns.

​​​

​Bernie now co-owns Wild at Heart Tattoo with his partner, Cathy FitzGerald, who has been an award-winning Brisbane tattooist since 2000. ​Many of Brisbane's best tattoo artists have worked in the studio. For over three decades,  Wild at Heart Tattoo has been at the forefront of Brisbane tattooing and has a vast wealth of knowledge about the art that only time can bring.

​​​

​Our focus is our clientele. We love tattooing and being a part of the community and we foster an inclusive and supportive environment with an incredible team of artists.
