🦖 How long have you been tattooing for?
About 10 years

🦖 How has your style developed over the years?
I started off in a walk in studio doing all styles. I leapt on the watercolour band wagon about 8 years ago and my style is now a lot more graphic and strong I would say - where as I was much more dainty and delicate a few years ago.

🦖Where do you see yourself in five years?
Who knows! What I can say is that I’m one of those lucky smug gits that has everything they could want. I love my life and keep myself busy learning new skills and hobbies. I love change and new challenges so I’m sure in 5 years I’ll have another few strings to my bow!

I am grateful to have joined Unit 2, having tattooed on my own before and it’s really fulfilling to work alongside friends and soak up the buzz and creativity.

🦖 What’s your ideal project?
It changes every time I sit down and try and draw some flash.. I’ve been really inspired recently by artwork of cranes with their long necks and beaks and wingspan - I’d love to do a whole leg piece with the crane in my style.

🦖 How long do you think you’d last in a zombie apocalypse? 🧟
I’d be the first to go! You know those dreams where you’re being chased? In my dream I always run towards the man eating dinosaur to get it over with 🤣
