Selected work

A quiet kind of detail.

Botanical and ornamental fine line, almost always in black, placed to follow the lines of the body. A few recent pieces below. The fullest, most current gallery lives on Instagram.

The approach

Made for you and in collaboration with you.

Fine-line work is a slow process, so patience is required from both of us. Single needles and other smaller configurations require the artist to work very gently, and rushing is not an option for a good result.

Flash is available, but more commonly I produce custom pieces working closely with the client so that we can create something truly unique to them, and that encapsulates their vision perfectly.

How booking works

What to expect.

  1. 01

    Enquiry

    Send your idea, placement and any references you have. The more you share, the better.

  2. 02

    Deposit

    Once a date is set a deposit will be requested, which comes off the final price. Movable with notice.

  3. 03

    Design

    Following your brief I will draw up a design for you and send it the day before, so you have time to make any changes necessary.

  4. 04

    Session

    My hope is to always create a calm, comfortable space. No rushing, no stress. We can take time with size and placement for as long as you need.

  5. 05

    Aftercare

    I will go through the aftercare at the end of the tattoo and also send it in an email so you can revisit it.

Good to know

A few common questions.

How much does a piece cost?

It depends on size, detail and placement. Smaller fine-line pieces start lower, larger ornamental work costs more. Tell me your idea and budget in the enquiry and you will get an honest quote.

How do deposits work?

A deposit secures your appointment and comes off the final price. It is non-refundable, but with 48h notice it can be moved to another date.

Do you work in colour?

The work is mostly fine black linework, which is what gives it that soft, drawn quality. If you have a colour idea, mention it and we can talk it through.

Will fine line last?

Looked after well, yes. Fine line is delicate by nature, so placement, aftercare and sun protection all matter. You will get clear aftercare to keep it settling cleanly.

Is there an age limit?

Yes, you must be 18 or over with valid ID. No exceptions.

Where are you based?

London. Exact studio details are shared once your booking is confirmed.
