I had the absolute honour of getting to tattoo this handwritten note on these three ladies.
The note is from a very special woman in their lives and was tattooed as is in her handwriting.

The best way to keep a piece of a loved one with you forever.

Last year I finished this beautiful floral piece for Janna. Today it was given a bit of a colour refresh and touch up.

The line portrait was a commissioned piece that I designed and then had the honour of tattooing for Ashleigh. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tattoo this special piece for you.

The 2x scorpions and 2x voodoo dolls were from my flash day yesterday and I had a blast doing them. Always a pleasure when I get to tattoo genuinely cool people and returning clients.

Message me for your next little skin art piece 😊

Ever wanted a tattoo to represent your family or someone special without having a full portrait?
Here's one I've designed for myself. It's one of my favourite photos of us 3 and I've created a beautiful line work tattoo to represent it.

If you want a line work design for your family, special someone or even your furry companion/s, get in touch.
$50 for a design made for you. As many changes as you like can be made to the design until it's a design you want. You can have me tattoo it or take your design to another artist, or even have the design printed out to frame. The $50 design fee means the final design is yours and will need to be paid before I start designing.
This fee is now for all of my designs as they can take hours to create.

Little Cancer starsign ♋️ 🦀 for Tyler.
He also wanted a finger tattoo and decided in the moment to get a # on his middle finger.
***you
He was shocked to find out just how painful finger tattoos are. Even a small, simple tattoo like this was hard to sit through for him.

So only get a finger tattoo if you are really able to endure the pain. Also, be aware that hands, especially fingers, may not hold ink well, and you will likely need continuous touch-ups for the tattoo to withstand the test of time. Luckily, this guy has me as an aunty and can have finger tattoos touched up for years to come.

I have a hand tattoo myself and have tattooed my own fingers. Numbing cream may be your best friend if you intend on getting those areas tattooed, although I do not use numbing cream on myself, but tattooing myself is a different ball game.
I have some recommendations on tattoo numbing cream from client experiences with it if you want to ask about it.

Please note that any requests for tattoo designs are now charged. $50 for a 'consult/tattoo design' that covers the entire process of designing with any edits/amendments that you want made throughout the designing process and you won't be limited to how many times you want a change made.
This is because I have had a high level of requests for designs, which take me several hours sometimes with no guarantee that a client will get it tattooed, which means hours spent designing a tattoo for nothing.
Charging for the time spent coming up with the design is reasonable, it will mean the design is yours and if you take the business of the tattoo elsewhere, atleast I get a payment for the hours spent designing it.

📸Get on trend with hair tinsel📱
It can last weeks, and you can wash, dry, curl, and straighten your hair as usual.
✨️It can be a subtle glisten, or you can go bold with striking colours.🌈⭐️
Great for adding some magic to your look for those special events such as parties, balls, work functions, and weddings.
I can also come to children's parties and do a deal for multi-clients. 🧚🏼‍♀️🧜🏽‍♀️
I am also available to face paint for children's parties.. 🎨 👩🏼‍🎨

Dream Catcher Tattoo done today with a couple of extra vine strands added to my previous vines from a few weeks ago.
Thank you to Charmaine for again trusting me with her skin and wanting me to add to the freehand vines.

It gives me such joy to have clients come back with more designs they want. It makes me feel confident that I am developing and being given the opportunity to continue to develop as a tattoo

From next month, any designs that are being requested will be charged as a design/consultation fee of $50. The demand for designs have become so high and I spend hours designing these tattoos. Whether you take the design to another artist, have me tattoo it, or decide you're not ready for that tattoo yet, the fee of $50 will stand and will need to be paid before I start designing.
Hopefully everyone will understand that I need to look after my time and creative mind by rewarding the many many hours spent drawing up designs, then altering them to align with your vision. Making someone's vision come to fruition isn't as easy as I can make it seem.

🐈All the designs done for the Caturday Flash Days🐈‍⬛ Thank you to everyone who supported me and the fundraising for TAPT. 60% of all proceeds will be donated to TAPT to help with all the costs of being a cat rescue trust.
I really enjoyed meeting new people and fellow cat fosterers.
A special thank you to my returning clients who continue to support my tattoo artist development.

Two pieces done today.
A free-hand vine strands across the ribs/side torso.
Instead of designing a stencil, I drew the design free hand on to Charmaine. So, this is entirely unique to her.
The other a little floral piece with the dandelion representing her friends' love for them.
Thank you so much for trusting me to literally just draw a design onto you, Charmaine. It was an absolute pleasure tattooing you, and I look forward to our already booked next appointment for some more skin art.

Message me to book in for some permanent skin art 🎨

💰I will be raising funds for Taranaki Animal Protection Trust again. TAPT are currently wanting to buy another incubator for neonate kittens. The incubator they have has saved a kitty life, but there are more to be saved. These incubators are really pricey but so worth it. For anyone who has been following TAPT, the story of Elf is such a special one, so if you haven't already, head to their page and follow Elf's journey as he grows.

My first cover-up was successfully completed today. 🏆
Dani is getting married this year and needed a name covered on her knee.
She liked the idea of a cluster of crystals in blue and purple as these colours also had meaning. 🔵🟣
Once it was agreed that a cluster of crystals would be the picture, she gave me complete free reign on design and the choice of colour and colour gradients.
This was such a fun design and certainly helped me confirm my joy in creating permanent skin art and that I have the skill to develop and get somewhere in tattooing.
