Traditional Machine Free Tattooing
AKA Hand Poke 

 

The first machine free tattoo I made was around 17 years ago.
Once I began working in a busy walk-in studio, there wasn't the option to continue hand poked tattooing. It was High Intensity and speed was of the essence. 
Similarly, when I got to be point of being able to progress my work into a more avant garde/realistic style of tattooing.
I lost touch with how fulfilling & organic Hand poke -traditional tattooing was.


Happily in more recent years I am excited and grateful for the opportunity to be able to tattoo by hand again.
Also t
he last few years I have been really getting into healing/spiritual symbols & ancient tattooing in various cultures.
