Eight directions we work in. Most pieces end up somewhere between two of them — bring a reference and we'll help you place it.

Blackwork

Solid black, negative space, weight and silence.

Traditional structure, wind and water, built to last a lifetime.

Single needle, quiet detail, drawn close to the skin.

Black and grey depth — light studied before it is tattooed.

Pattern mapped to the body rather than placed on it.

Bold line, muted palette, illustrative confidence.

Letterforms drawn by hand, spaced for the body.

Brush, gesture, accident — controlled on purpose.

Not sure where your idea sits? Send us the reference and we'll tell you honestly which style — and which artist — it belongs to.
