Lifelong Artist | Portrait & Black and Grey Specialist


With a background as a lifelong pencil artist, my path was originally set for the gaming industry. However, the tactile nature of tattooing called louder. My journey began in 2009 with a traditional, old-school apprenticeship at Vivid while balancing university life. Choosing to follow my craft over formal education, I eventually transitioned to self-teaching, supported by friends within the industry. 


My career truly took shape at Candy Skull in Manchester, where I spent three years refining my technique and finding my rhythm. This growth led to the opening of my own studio, Apollo Tattoo Arts. Driven by the dark realism and precision of legends like Bob Tyrrell, Tom Sugar, Paul Booth, and Jason Butcher, I have dedicated my career to pushing the boundaries of realism. Today, I specialize in high-detail portraits and black-and-grey work.
