We added to Chanty’s chest piece cover up this little sternum church. I LOVE this placement, I believe working on the body’s natural shapes enhance femininity and it’s an awesome way of self expression!

🐓🍓❤️ WHICH IS YOUR FAV OUT OF 1-10? ❤️🍓🐓

This year I had the privilege of tattooing so many beautiful animals on so many beautiful people!

Animals have to be my favourite subjects to tattoo, especially chickens. I hope next year I get to make hundreds more for y’all 🥹

I love hearing all about your pets, your journeys together and how you share your lives with animals. Nothing warms my heart more and reminds me how important community and compassion are in this world that we live in.

Thank you for being here, thank you for looking and thank you for your support. Love you all! 🐓❤️🍓😍

I was gonna wait until this was fully healed to post, but I’m too excited and tbh all of the lines, snake colouring is all HEALED anyway.

This was a very special project for me to create for Gab, as this was a way to bring continuity to existing works tattooed by my bestie @deankalcoff
He’d be cracking jokes about me stealing clients off him, but then making sure I knew it was a joke by saying he really liked the colours, followed by “borrowing” said colours.

Ty Gab. Means the world to me to create alongside him again.

And snakes 🐍 love love love them. Spent the longest time thinking I wasn’t good at designing them. But here we are, pushing at self imposed limits. Perfect timing with Year of the Snake too.

#snaketattoo #pitvipersnake #snake #yearofthesnake #kneetattoo #legtattoo

“I’ve drawn two sugar glider heads, and I’m going to sharpie on the rest to fit in between your tattoos…” [pic:2]

The trust my clients offer me is so appreciated. Ty Nik for another inspired piece and welcoming me back to Melbourne with an Aussie favourite.

I'd love to add more colour realism to my portfolio, especially more mini portraits of your fur babies. 🐶❤️🐱

Is Cornchip the greatest name for a dog you’ve ever heard???

Healed portraits of the pups for @kyle_est13 — added their names in today, we will eventually black out all around them and build into the shoulders. 🥰

Each portrait took only one full day sitting, with no touch ups as of yet. Will see how the contrast sits once the black is in.

King Davids healed front piece. We started his full back today, he will have a body suit in no time at this rate! Thank you david! #tattoos #biomech_collective

King David back again. Today was his birthday, I hope he had a nice day or he will surely take it out on us peasants for sure. #biomech_collective #biomechanicaltattoo

little hook on @kaidenrichardstattoo I took this photo with that polarised light trick an I don't really know how I feel about it. #tattoos #biomech_collective

Used a limited colour pallet on this one. I usually struggle really badly choosing colours for realism pieces. For this piece i got out 8-9 ink caps an thats all i used. Half is healed from the first session, no magic tricks in my tattooing. We are adding more to CJ's leg in December. #tattoos
