I am a self taught professional working in the tattoo industry. I've wanted to be a tattooist since I was 11 years of age, and I'm sat here writing this now; aged 22. Tattooing has always been an art i've admired and respected- and until I did my first ever tattoo (which I am not ashamed to admit was AWFUL) I never realised truly at home I felt.

​

I now work in a small studio situated in Cirencester, in the heart of the cotswolds. I am a fully licenced and insured tattooist- using a lot of high end materials to carry out my craft. I've been tattooing 3 years this upcoming December, but the desire to be in the trade has been for longer. I've worked on so many different designs from portraits of dogs right the way through to Japanese and tribal.

​

At a younger age of 16 I started a National Diploma BTEC in Art and Design. I left with sufficient grades and a excellent portfolio- live drawing being a speciality; I preferred (and still do) to draw organic objects. My entire life I've been known as the 'arty one' even when I was a lot younger I used to draw on my own tattoos with felt tips and for some time practised on my friends and family with 'sharpies' and 'UNIposca' paint pens.

​

Although there are some tattoo styles I don't do- i always have a look at the design and be honest. But it hasn't happened yet. To do my job; i have to be able to envision the tattoo before it goes on; if i can't see it- i'll spend longer working way at the design until I do.
