The work

Every piece here was drawn from scratch for one person and one body. Nothing on this page has been repeated, and nothing on this page will be.

Seven pieces shown. Send more photographs and they drop straight in. A portfolio this size under-sells seven years of work.

How it goes

Four steps from idea to healed.

/ 01

Consult

Thirty minutes, no charge, in studio or on video. Bring references, or bring nothing. You leave with an honest yes, no, or “here's what will actually work.”

/ 02

Design

Your deposit secures the date and pays for the drawing. You see the artwork before the day and change it as many times as you need.

/ 03

Session

Private room, your playlist, breaks whenever you want them. Stencil goes on, you approve placement in the mirror, then she starts.

/ 04

Healed

Aftercare kit before you leave, a check-in on day 10, a free touch-up at six weeks and a free colour top-up at twelve months.

Solid black, healed flat

The real test

Fresh looks good.
Healed tells the truth.

Anyone can shoot a piece an hour after it's finished, oiled and glowing. Ask to see the same tattoo at eighteen months. That is when you find out whether the black was packed properly or whether it healed patchy and grey. Aya keeps healed photos of almost everything she's done; ask at your consult and she'll show you the same style, the same spot, two years on.
