I specialize in black and grey realism, large-scale projects, and custom designs, while remaining versatile across a wide range of styles. Every piece is approached with thoughtful planning, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to producing timeless work that is tailored to each client’s individual vision.
My background in traditional art, combined with years of experience studying composition, light, and form, continues to shape every tattoo I create. Whether you have a fully developed concept or only the beginning of an idea, I welcome the opportunity to collaborate and create something truly unique that you’ll be proud to wear for a lifetime.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does getting a tattoo hurt?
It can be a little uncomfortable, but it really depends on where you’re getting it and your pain tolerance. Some spots are more sensitive than others, but most people say it’s totally manageable!
How do I take care of my tattoo?
Keep it clean, moisturised, and avoid soaking it in water or exposing it to the sun while it’s healing. We will give you detailed aftercare instructions – just follow those, and you’ll be fine!
Should I eat before getting a tattoo?
Yes, definitely! Eating a good meal before your appointment helps keep your blood sugar stable, which can prevent you from feeling lightheaded or faint during the session. Snacks are also a great idea, especially if it’s a long appointment!
What should I wear to my tattoo appointment?
Wear something comfy that gives easy access to the area you’re getting tattooed. For example, if it’s on your arm, a short-sleeved shirt is perfect.
What happens if my tattoo scabs or peels?
Don’t worry, it’s totally normal! Just don’t pick at it, as that can mess up the design or cause scarring.
Can I exercise after getting a tattoo?
Light exercise is okay, but try to avoid anything that makes you sweat a lot or rubs against the tattoo for the first few days.
