ABOUT

I’m a London-based tattoo artist heavily influenced by skateboarding and photography.

I specialise in black and grey realism and chrome work that genuinely looks metallic — because realism can’t be faked. I’m versatile across styles, but I only take on work I know I can truly do justice.

I guess this is what happens when you know the reference image and have unconsciously been studying it for 20years.

Had so much fun making this little C3PO Lego man @tattooteaparty last weekend.
It was also my first time using my new machine @acus_tattoomachines M2 I think for the type of work I’m doing it might be the perfect machine for me 😱

Had the best time making this chrome Snoopy for my awesome client in the motherland @uktattoofest a couple of weeks ago.

Had an amazing time today getting this done by Carter! Not only do I love the tattoo but he made the experience getting it 10x better! He always made sure that I was 100% happy with the size and placement.

Carter was brilliant friendly, informative and his work speak for itself. Amazing!
