Every tattoo starts with a story. And there is no single way to tell two different stories.
Over the years, my work has grown into different eras - shaped by life, new skills, new ideas and especially the people I’ve tattooed.
Each era added a new visual language to my work without replacing the ones before it. Today, they exist side by side, giving us different ways to tell your story.
Micro realism
The foundation of my work.
-
Micro realism has always fascinated me in its technical complexity. But to me it never really felt like a style per se, more like a technique.
That is why I kept exploring different visual languages. Over many years its DNA can still be found in all the stories I was helping to tell throughout different eras.
I absolutely love coming back to this visual language and just finessing something sentimental on the body.
Flowerheads
A language built around movement.
-
Four years into tattooing, this was the beginning of me as an artist. I could finally say “I found a style”. To honor that moment I even renamed my instagram page into a @flowerhead.ink
A beautiful balance between dynamic and static, between simple and complex, between "me” and "the world”.
Each one of these flowerheads seemed to start a sleeve party, making all the other tattoos around it dance in unison.
Disco balls
An exploration of light, reflection and imagination.
-
Fun fact - in 2022 I started this style because it reminded me of playing sudoku. It is the definition of "organized chaos”.
I did one disco ball, loved working on it, looked around and asked myself "what else can I make disco?” Seconds later “EVERYTHING….”
Since then I have not gotten tired of doing it. And my clients keep amazing me with their own interpretations of what they want to turn into a disco ball.
Constellation
A language for stories that are harder to explain literally.
-
Constellation is a visual language that resonates with people trying to tell a complex story, when just one image can't do it.
Or in simple words “can we make this patchwork sleeve look intentional?” The answer is YES!
I looooove orchestrating different images, connecting everything with clean lines and turn that all into one cohesive symphony.
