Booking starts online through my contact form. A deposit is required to secure your spot, and we’ll plan your design together before your appointment.

I’m known for fantasy art, biomechanical themes, and high-detail realism. I also enjoy mixing pop culture, surrealism, and dark art influences.

Most tattoos take about 2–3 weeks to surface-heal, with deeper layers taking up to 2 months. I’ll guide you through aftercare to make sure your piece heals bright and strong. I strongly recommend visiting my AFTERCARE page where I go in depth.
