Playful natural history tattoos, specialising in blackwork and abstract colour.

Tattoo giveaway! πβ€οΈπ
Let`s get something exciting in the diary! Tell me your dream tattoo ideas and maybe you`ll win one from me π
Swipe across to see how to enter..but the basic gist is:
1. Follow me
2. Comment below with your idea for a tattoo from me
3. Tag a friend in the comment
πYou can comment as many times as you want - each idea will be another entry.
β¨ I will pick one winner for a free tattoo, and two runners up will get massively discounted tattoos. Niiiice!
β‘I`ll be choosing the ideas which I most want to tattoo.
*I`ll only be contacting winners of the giveaway via this account and you will never be asked for payment - just putting this out there cus there`s been some scammers around π*
Looking forward to your ideas! Xx
Just reposting this Stevie dog tattoo I did on @beccimaryanne last year because it`s one of my faves, she`s one of my faves and Steve`s one of my faves. So much love for the good people in my life, the ridiculous luck that I get to make things everyday, and that I can share them with you all here. Hope you`re all keeping your chins up π

For sale! This little owl face wall hanging is going in my shop tomorrow but if you want to nab it first DM me. It`s Β£45 and it`s my first attempt at punch needle embroidery. It`s 20 x 26cm not including the hanging rope. Hand-sewn on recycled mustard yellow linen. Swipe for some details. Can`t wait to make more of these, and am loving including bits of painting like my earlier wall hangings too βΊοΈ

Took some photos of me wearing my new @roakestudio brass and silver earrings. I love them π
Constantly tempted by all the amazing things small businesses make and sell π
I`ve had to be very disciplined during the pandemic, but one of the things that has cheered me up has been Roake - their stuff makes me feel shiny on a dull lockdown dayβΊοΈ (even if I do mostly wear pajamas now)
What small brands and makers have you been lurking or buying from? π

Just a little reminder I am still taking tattoo bookings. Though there`s still no sign when we can start again I am adding people to a waiting list and taking small deposits. It gives us all something to look forward to! β€οΈ
Hope you`re all doing alright through this neverending slog. I`m keeping busy with creative projects, and also reading lots. Swipe to see a book I really recommend if you`re an octopus fan. (especially if you enjoyed My Octopus teacher on netflix)

Usually my posts feature other people`s skin, and their tattoos...but something a bit different! This is me, and one of my scars. Tomorrow I`ll be taking over the wonderful @behindthescars_ as the very talented @sophiemayanne agreed to let me loose to tell my story. I`ll be sharing all about the scoliosis op I had when I was 15. Follow @behindthescars_ and keep an eye on the stories if you`re interested in hearing all about it. I`m a wee bit nervous π
but hope it`s a good thing to put myself out there and maybe help other people feel comfy in their own skin? There`s some brilliant stories from some much braver folk than I, check out the project π
