Custom blackwork, fine line, neo-traditional and cover-up work by resident artists who show fresh and healed results. Flash is available for walk-ins; custom projects start with a clear consultation.
Three artists, three booking rhythms. Each artist keeps a visible style lane, marks what heals well, and tells you when flash is the better path than a custom commission.
Fifteen years tattooing. Trained in traditional Japanese tebori before moving into neo-traditional blackwork. Raven’s pieces lean on heavy linework, open negative space and staged large-scale placement.
Sable came up through botanical illustration. Single-needle work, hyper-detailed micro-realism and ornamental pieces. Best fit for small to mid-size detail work where line weight matters.
Mika builds high-contrast flash, script, small symbols and custom redraws from studio flash. Best fit for first tattoos, paired pieces and quick placement decisions without sacrificing clean composition.
Artwork leads the page: fresh linework, healed detail, flash adaptations and cover-up planning with the artist, style, placement and healing state called out.
Fresh photos are useful. Healed photos show whether the line weight, saturation and placement decision still hold after real skin settles.
Sable kept the line weight slightly heavier on a high-movement inner arm placement.
Raven designed breathing room into the negative space so the sleeve stayed readable.
Mika adjusted the stencil to avoid a bend point, keeping small details crisp.
“Best blackwork in the Valley. Raven did my forearm piece in two sittings and the linework is still razor sharp two years on.”
James O’Brien, Google ReviewThe page makes the path clear before a client writes in: pick from flash for speed, commission custom for a designed piece, or book a cover-up consult when the old tattoo affects the plan.
Choose a pre-drawn piece from current flash. Best for small to medium work, fixed placement ranges, and same-day decisions.
Send placement, approximate size, style notes and references. Your artist confirms scope before taking a deposit.
The final stencil is reviewed on body scale. We discuss flow, ageing, visibility and any areas that may need simplification.
We need clear photos in daylight, age of existing work, scar texture and whether laser lightening is already planned.
A deposit locks the artist, design time and session date. It comes off the final sitting and can move once with notice.
Every client leaves with second-skin or wrap instructions, wash guidance, red flags and a healed photo reminder.
Deposits are non-refundable because they reserve artist time, but they are transferable once with at least 48 hours notice. Major design changes may need a new consult before the session date.
Clients get a plain-language care sheet, product guidance, and a follow-up window for questions. Touch-ups are assessed after the tattoo is fully settled, usually 4 to 8 weeks.
A good tattoo enquiry tells us the what, where, how big and why. This form asks for the details artists actually need before quoting.
Give us enough detail to route you to flash, custom design, cover-up review or aftercare support.
