TATTOOS all around THE WORLD WILL TRAVEL
Fine line, heavy blackwork and dark-romantasy flash — moths, moons, brambles and the occasional cursed dagger. Manchester is home base, but most months I’m somewhere else: guest spots, conventions and private sessions in whichever city will have me. If I’m not passing through yours yet, ask.

SIX YEARSof needles
I started drawing tattoo flash in the margins of paperbacks — mostly the ones with swords on the cover — and never really stopped. Now I work out of a private studio: one chair, one client at a time, loud music, snacks provided.
Everything is drawn by hand before it touches skin. I’m happiest doing delicate botanical fine line and heavy blackwork moths, and I’m genuinely thrilled by first-timers, scar work and cover-ups.
- Vegan ink & single-use everything
- Fragrance-free, sensory-friendly sessions on request

WHERE I’LL BEguest spots & conventions
I take the machine with me. Every stop below is a real chair in a real studio — book the city, not just the date. Dates firm up about six weeks out, and deposits move with me if a stop shifts. Somewhere I’m not going yet? Get three or four friends together and ask.
