What is woodcut style ?

Wood cut style tattoos is a style in which the artist  draws inspiration from historical printmaking techniques such as  engraving, copper etching and block printing.

This creates a  timeless and gothic aesthetic into modern body art. The style is defined by black line work, cross hatching and intentional use of negative space to create dimension. Some artists will also incorporate subtle shading to create more depth .

Does it age well ?

Yes ! With the correct technique, and design this tattoo style will age fantastically, as bold line work tattoos tend to hold up the best over time (bold will hold). It is important that you choose an artist who specialises in this style, as they will take into consideration:

• That the  lines aren't too close together

• Skilled line work (as there is zero room to hide. Any blowouts or shoddy line work will stick out)

Over time, ALL tattoos with spread and become less defined, as they settle into the skin. As the years pass you  may lose texture if the artist has placed the lines are too close.

Do you do other styles?

Yes! I am open to do any style, including fine line, trad, neo trad, micro realism and more. So if you want something different then black work or woodcut, I’m more then happy to accommodate.
