Hi, I’m Chris, and I’ve been deeply immersed in the art of tattooing since 2014. My creative journey initially began in the world of design and engineering, where I honed my understanding of structure, precision, and complex composition. However, my passion for more tangible, lasting art led me to transition into the world of tattooing, a move that allowed me to apply those technical problem solving skills to a living canvas and connect with people on a more personal level.
My career truly took off right here in Edinburgh, where I established my foundational skills at Jazz Tattoo. It was there that I discovered the profound impact that tattoos can have, not just as art but as a form of personal expression. Now, I am proud to bring that experience and dedication to HeartShip Tattoos. This studio is not just a business it’s a creative sanctuary where we pour our hearts into every piece of work.
While I have a particular passion for the technical precision of Realism and the bold, dynamic storytelling of traditional Japanese designs, I thrive on the diversity and challenge of all styles. I am an artist who enjoys variety, and I find immense joy in creating tattoos that resonate with my clients’ unique stories and personalities. My approach is always collaborative I believe the best tattoos are born from a dialogue between the artist and the client, where ideas merge to create something truly unique.
At HeartShip Tattoos, every tattoo is more than just ink on skin it’s a piece of art that reflects both the client’s individuality and my commitment to craftsmanship. Whether you’re looking for a highly detailed realism piece, a traditional Japanese sleeve, or a completely different style altogether, I’m here to help you bring your vision to life.
