A glorious day last week weaving wildflowers around this existing bee tattoo (not by me πŸ™‚) on a lovely human. Thankyou for your patience! Some slightly awkward positions when tattooing this part of the body, I think we both needed a long walk afterwards!

I am off into the woods for the rest of the week running our hazel basketry course, so will be mainly MIA out of the realms of internet ✨ back to drawing tattoos and communication next week! πŸ™πŸŒΏ

Some lovely travellers dropped by the studio this week to have a quirky hand tattoo. It was a new placement for me so we spent some time making sure it was just right and all the wiggles were in a place that felt good. Healing hand tattoos takes extra patience but is often worth it ✨ I’ve already loved hands, what wonders they are!

A lovely day last week spent crafting this delicate scallop shell from my flash designs. Gifted to a very lovely human who travelled far to visit me in my wee garden studio tucked away in the hills of Aberfeldy! Thankyou for your trust and for the lovely chats ✨🐚

These soft tattoos often look like brown ink because of the redness and swelling after a tattoo however they darken up and deepen in colour over the days after being tattooed! :)

This tattoo design has been reborn several times now which I think feels poignant as it was originally inspired by the Pictish crescent v-rod symbol which is believed to represent moon & sky, the connection between this world and the next, re birth and transformation.

The wolf is both a teacher of resilience, community and intuition to name a just a few of its symbolic representations. As well as a nod to one of our most important Keystone species, that we have lost here in the U.K. and of which without we have lost the thriving ecosystems we once had. A loss that weights heavy on my heart.

Maybe not in my lifetime, however the tides are slowly turning and hopefully in the future we will see the return of these marvellous animals. ✨

A symbolic handpoked Birch branch arm band ✨ thankyou for your trust I loved working on this commission, and bonding over the healing and majestic powers of Birch. Birch trees have held humans for thousands of years, provided materials for baskets, canoes, homes, fire, medicines.. to name a few, we bask in their majestic presence in the fall, in the spring, in the winter when they’re purplish hue stands out against the dull days. This tattoo is our ode to birch.

Thankyou for all the wonderful chats 🌿
