A gallery of my Recent Work and current projects
Apologies for a few of my videos being poor quality/contrast!

I love this style of art (surrealism)... if you would like something similar, please reach out and I will happily make you your own unique design


It's great when clients commit to big projects like this, and come for enough sessions to complete it properly. There was a couple of parts I wanted to do a little more on (such as the super-painful back of the knee), but Dom was leaving the country to go travelling, and was understably on a budget (and he'd had enough pain for one year!). But I feel like we completed it to a high standard.
Every image used (bar one) is completely unique, and created using AI.

I'm more than happy to work out deals or cheaper rates on large projects like this

A fun 'Icarus' project


Japanese Realism


There is still a little pen and stencil left on the skin behind the wings in this video


Ongoing Leg Sleeve

The fresh tattoo on the left is healed on the right

Neo-traditional Japanese


I offer a reduced rate on portraits as I enjoy doing them so much!



From stencil to tattoo...
A custom, realistic, neo-japanese portrait
with some abstract effects



A fun, custom redesign of an existing concept


A modern pocket watch and floral design.
Client requested this quote, so we chose typewriter font and a minimal background to keep the emphasis on it.
Parts of the rose blend into the skin without an obvious edge, and lastly the chain connects the different components and we add some subtle ink drops for texture

Timelapse of some of the design process

This sea monster half-sleeve was inspired by a (bad) photo of an existing tattoo, and involved a lot of freehanding



Progress on this custom owl chest piece, which will probably
eventually extend onto the back, and up the neck
A different artist did the Greek arm tattoo

Work on Ashley's horror sleeve
Some of the surrounding tattoos are by another artist



I first tattood John over 10 years ago! Soon after that I moved to London. Recently he got in touch to finish the sleeve, which was a nice suprise


Progress shots of a sleeve based on the (Cardinal) 7 Sins and Virtues




Heath Ledger's Joker in his Bozo disguise from the opening scene of the Dark Knight movie. The joker/jester is a fascinating archetype, with a deep history...
We already started a sleeve with statues and old world stuff on the other arm, and now Leon wanted to start an urban sleeve on this one. This is the first section of that, with some really interesting ideas to do in the near future (re-imagining some classic tattoo imagery)

Lee came to me hoping to get a nice map sleeve, which is a fairly popular idea and has been done quite a few times in modern tattooing. After some consulting, he was happy to go with something a bit more ambitious than the usual style, and full colour (although focusing on reds and browns)...so it was great to have some freedom and attempt something special.
The final design comprises of london map, his son's poetry, a lighthouse photo, book, a Bermuda triangle map, and realistic objects including an inkwell & quill, a pocket watch, compass, flower, rope, key and locket. I was really pleased with the way we managed to fit them together in a convincing way. The photos (and certainly videos) I have of this piece probably dont do it justice, but I would love to add a few finishing outlines in the future and take some more.

After finishing his black & grey sleeve, Andrew wanted to go 'all out' on a badass, full-colour Egyptian leg sleeve, after us discussing some pictures in the past on the theme. I suggested going Neo style, with almost futuristic or 'ancient-technology' rather than traditional Egyptian themes. Here's an almost-complete Cleopsis (eater of the dead) on the calf, and the start of the God Ra on the shin, and Anubis as a guard of the city on the thigh. We are partway through Horus, the Eye of Osiris, and an Egyptian pyramid & eclipse scene.....with more pictures coming soon.

I love the mashups of graffiti on statues and portraits that we started seeing from artists around the world in recent years, and always wanted to try my own. Here's Ian's Predator decorated with personalised tags, and a dark style. We now started adding the rainforest in funky blue, which will spread over the chest in thermal pattern, with the waterfall from the movie escape, and pixelated effects to exagerate the 80's vibe. Below Predator I'll add a stickerbombed computer on his arm, with 80's logos....and moving on the rest of the arm we will do an Alien head decorated with acid green graffiti, as well as the hatching eggs, tagged ofcourse.
A really fun project...the early sessions suffered from bad sun damage, so we will put a few sharp details and contrast back in.

Continuing on from a great portrait we first did over 3 years ago. Here we added a large church window, and a burning church (and town) above it. It was satisfying to get a lot more space covered after the long break with it

A nice handpiece for Harry, which will benefit from another session to strengthen it (as hands so often do)


It was nice to catch up with these cherubs recently, from around 4 years ago. The addition of St Christopher on the other arm completed the balance. Thanks to him for these healed photos

Some more random bits! Including ongoing watercolours, a trippy mushroom for mushroom season....a quick ipad painting playing with colours...a peace gap-filler!, and freehand Japanese...
I have a lot of digital paintings ongoing, I shall soon upload...
