Before tattooing, I filled sketchbooks with bold, abstract designs. Black ink felt powerful and timeless. My love for drawing evolved into an obsession with skin as a living canvas.

Tattooing is more than just skill; it requires discipline. I spent years honing clean lines and bold contrasts. In blackwork, every line has intention, making each piece unforgettable.

Exactly the line work I wanted

Rowan’s precision is unreal. The piece healed clean, the details stayed sharp, and the entire process felt controlled and thoughtful.

Better than what I envisioned

Calm and professional

The studio is quiet, the workflow is clear, and the craftsmanship is on another level. Worth the trip, easily the best session I’ve had.

Heres how we bring your tattoo to life, start to finish.

01

Share Your Idea

It all starts with a conversation. We’ll sit down in person or virtually - to talk about your vision, placement, and style preferences. Whether you have a clear concept or just a feeling, I’ll help refine it into something that works perfectly for your skin and body.

02

Bringing It to Paper

Once I understand your vision, I create a one-of-a-kind design tailored to you. This stage is about precision - clean composition, bold contrast, and a layout that flows naturally with your body. For flash tattoos, you’ll simply choose a design from my curated flash book.

03

The Tattoo Session

On the day of your appointment, we’ll confirm placement and walk through the process before the needle ever touches skin. My focus is on clean, steady work with minimal discomfort. You’ll leave with a bold, striking piece of blackwork designed to last a lifetime.

04

Keeping It Sharp

Your tattoo is only as good as its healing process. I’ll provide clear aftercare steps to ensure the design heals cleanly and stays bold for years to come. From touch-ups to long-term care, I’m here to make sure your piece looks as good on day 1,000 as it did on day 1.

It’s about boldness, permanence, and creating art that stands the test of time.”
