And that’s a wrap for my last convention of 2026 and as they say, leave the best to last.
What a weekend!
Firstly a huge thank you the staff and organisers of this year’s The Royal Down tattoo convention and in particular my bro from another mo Wayne Ellis for putting on such a fantastic show. His passion, professionalism, and artist-first approach really shone through, and it made for an incredible weekend from start to finish. Thank
I’m delighted to have bagged myself 2nd place large black & grey with this dinosaur sleeve I started. I’m heading home absolutely exhausted, but more importantly, inspired.
A massive thank you to everyone who stopped by my booth to say hello, chat, and take a look at my work. It genuinely means a lot. And a special thank you to my amazing client who sat like an absolute champion for two full days straight… you made the whole piece possible ma man!!
It was also great catching up with so many great friends, and equally inspiring to meet so many incredibly talented artists over the weekend. The laughs, craic and memories made were top drawer as per usual.
Until the next one…. thank you all for making it such a memorable show.

Tattooed this piece at the Belfast Tattoo Convention at the Europa Hotel a couple of weekends ago.
Was great catching up with so many friends and artists and also meeting so many knew people. The talent that was on show and the tattoos that were created was absolutely insane, and I’m really looking forward to next year’s show already.
Big shout out to my b***y buddies at for the laughs n craic this past weekend. Never a dull moment 🤣 n was great seeing them all again.
The biggest thanks n shout out goes to who sat like an unwavering champ for three days straight to finish off the lower half of his arm. Many hours of tattooing put in over the three days n he didn’t even bat an eye lid.
We worked on completing Karl’s life and death themed sleeve we started at last year’s convention by adding Mother Nature holding a poisoned apple to represent how she can provide and destroy for the earth. Plus a decaying raven cuz who doesn’t enjoy some gnarly s**t 🤣
Time now for a wee day off to recharge the batteries and go again tomorrow 🤘🏻

Tattooed this piece a few weeks back for Connor. It’s photos taken of his grandfather when he became one of the first Air Ambulance paramedics for the Gloucestershire Air Ambulance. Loved working on such a cool personalised piece over the two days.

Diary for July is now open. Email [email protected] to book in.
Something completely different for me. My first ever attempt at a colour portrait in 18 years of tattooing 🤣
I’ve been listening to Angus Young and AC⚡️DC for most of my life, so when my wee mate asked if I’d be up for doing this, I couldn’t say yes quick enough 🤣
I’m happy with how it’s turned out but a second pass on a couple of areas later on will make me happier 🤣
Think I’ll just stick to the aul black n grey, but that was a fun one for sure🤘🏻
