How long have you been tattooing?
I’ve been tattooing since 2020.
What is your style?
I do mostly near-traditional, fine line, micro-realism, a little bit of everything.
What made you want to tattoo?
I wanted to broaden my horizons in art, and tattooing was the best way to do it.
Favourite part of your job?
The favorite part of my job is the permanency; being able to put art on somebody permanently and the gratification and reward of them being happy with something I have done.
Weirdest tattoo you have done?
Full-colour, Australian-made piece on a sweaty Tradie's bum.
What do you think is the biggest tattoo stereotype that is not true?
We’re all bikies. Our industry is so vast with so many different personalities that not everyone’s gonna fit into a stereotype. We’re all different. We’re not all intimidating. We just want to do what we do best, which is be creative.
What is the most challenging part of your job?
You never turn off; you're constantly deciding, drawing, thinking. You’re honestly just constantly wired. It’s not really a bad thing, but it does affect your ability to sleep sometimes.
