Hey, I’m Ailin and art’s been my thing for as long as I can remember. I studied animation at Bournemouth and Pool College of Art and Design, then spent about seven years working in the animation industry in Bristol. After that, I jumped into illustrating children’s books and publications—which I've done for nearly 20 years. Along the way, I got into drawing caricatures, both colour commissions, and live sketching at weddings and parties.

All those different styles and experiences naturally found their way into my tattoo work.

I started tattooing back in 2011 and was more of a hobby to begin with, but progressed into something more. I started working at the studio in 2020 and don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon.

With the artistic background that I have, I love bringing that mix of creativity, and fun into my tattooing. Whether it’s something detailed, simplistic, colourful, or totally offbeat, I’m all about making tattoos that are personal, versatile, and full of character.
