Books closed?

Hey everyone!

Since leaving Jericho Tattoo Emporium things have been really hectic

Here is the brief lowdown!

I am currently splitting my time between Black Rabbit Tattoo Collective in Newbury, Arkham Tattoo in Kidlington (Oxford), Underground ink in Barnet and O’ Happy Dagger in Amersham.

Due to the odd working hours, and the crazy but lovely response to my recent work I’m totally booked up until October.

I may be going to the U.S for a guest spot in October (or may be November/December) for a few weeks and am currently waiting on information on dates and length of stay etc so until I recieve the info I have closed my books temporarily to avoid having to disappoint/rearrange anyone.

Sorry guys

I will be putting on my facebook page and this blog when I’m opening up my books again and for which studios. This may be mid-late September. Ongoing work and prepaid deposits will get first priority, but I will be taking on new work too.

If you want a new piece and don’t mind waiting until October/November/December for it please email back in a couple of months including

Subject matter- and how specific or open you are for me to go crazy on your design

Style ( just say my style if you like all my other stuff 😀 )

Size- in inches or cm OR “full sleeve” “full leg” and “full back”

Placement

Whether you want it in Colour or black and grey

Length of time you can feasibly sit

any reference material you have amassed-these could include things like olour schemes, poses of birds or happy little pet faces.

If it is a cover up, a photo of your existing tattoo next to a ruler or an easily recognised object such as a DELICIOUS BISCUIT (everyone knows how big a custard cream is)

Where you are based, which studio would be more convenient for you and whether you are willing to travel.

What days suit you best, weekends tend to get booked up super fast so if you can do weekdays you will probably get in faster.

If you include all this information it will be super easy to get you in as soon as possible 🙂

In October my prices for new work will be- £50 minimum charge, £90 per hour or £400 for a full day. To book a day I require a £100 deposit, anything less will be a £50 deposit. These are payable by paypal or bank transfer- you can get the details on request

 

If you are an existing customer, please include a photo of what you already have (so i can remember how far we’ve gotten!) and how long you want to sit for, as  well as how much you currently have on deposit.  Existing work does have priority and will be charged at old pricing rates!

In the meantime you can follow me on fb or instagram for any news!

Thankyou for your continued patience 🙂

New beginnings

Hey everyone, hope you like the updated site! I wanted to have one that I could update more easily, maybe add a shop to and just keep the blog going.
I absolutely love working in Picture house tattoo studio, all the gals there are not only amazingly talented, but funny and great to work with too. I think that has reflected in my work since starting there as well, less stress and a nicer working environment=more time to focus on tattooing! art and just generally being happier.
Did my first ever (semi) realistic pet portrait on Chris

Which was a lot of fun, I want to do more of those for definite.
I haven’t got many new finished tattoos to post up as unfortunately I’ve been off for two weeks with whiplash after a car crash. Not a great thing for a tattooist to get with the neck and back ache etc!
At least I’ve been making the most of my time off (zonked on painkillers I might add) by getting some lady based artwork started for prints!
Here are a few sneak peeks, but not letting you see the finished articles Until they are all ready!

Aaand in other news I will be getting my car back tomorrow and back at work, fighting fit on Thursday. I managed to go out for a few drinks (probably shouldn’t have with the painkillers and all but I couldn’t miss another outing down to bad luck)
Here is a picture of us all looking very…ahem, glamorous before we headed off to Swindon

That is all for now lovely people.
Soon!

Sooo this week has been a goodun, I confirmed my place at picture house tattoo in Chippenham and did a lot of fun tattoos.

I haven’t got to do many black and grey tattoos since working at electric lady, but this week I managed to do a few. Which is a fun change.
