We have marked our bodies dot by dot for centuries.
This work for me, is shaped in deep gratitude by two lands—my ancestral heritage in the UK and the land I now call home in Australia. These places hold deep histories of tattooing, storytelling, and connection to the earth in very different ways.
I am here to be present, human, and grounded in the craft of marking skin with intention.
For thousands of years, the Celts and other ancient cultures tattooed using handpoke methods—bones, thorns, and sharpened sticks pressing ink and ash into the skin. These markings were tangible, lived symbols of protection, belonging, and transformation.
The art of handpoke tattooing has gifted me more meaning in coming back to earth—back to the raw, human experience.
Tattooing is a way to anchor ourselves in the present, to honor our stories, and to carry our intentions in our skin. With each mark, I hope to ignite the Awen—the spark of inspiration that reminds us we are here, living, breathing, feeling.
My work is not about escaping into the mystical but about reclaiming the ancient, earthy practice of marking the body with purpose.
Our tattoos are more than ink—may they ground you deeper into yourself, your path, and the land beneath your feet.
