Tattoo Artist
The tattoo industry has developed massively over the last decade and it's now possible to have almost anything imaginable permanently inked onto skin. While there will always be a place for simple 'Mum' tattoos, stars or bird silhouettes, there's a growing section of the industry dedicated to tattoo art.
After 3 or 4 months or tattoo shop work exprience, I started teaching myself how to tattoo in 2009/2010. The first few years was spent working on fairly basic tattoos, after that progressing to some larger, custom pieces. I now spend around 30% of my work time tattooing.
I'm currently working towards creating a niche portfolio of custom tattoos a little more along the lines of what I already do; a modern tattoo style, illustrative or with a comic, manga or sci-fi feel to it.
If you live in the South East of England and fancy working with me, let me know.

Hundreds of tattoo sessions later and I continue to build my tattoo portfolio; working towards developing my own style of custom designed tattoo pieces. If you're a tattoo fan who's happy to have some illustrative/ sci-fi / comic art skulls tattooed, let me know 🙂
