Andy

he/him

Andy is a Manchester-based, self-taught tattooist with a background in Fine Art. After completing a BA at Central Saint Martins in 2021, he transitioned into hand-poke tattooing while maintaining the painterly sensitivity and recurring themes of time, memory, and experience that shaped his earlier practice. His work draws on an interest in the decorative nature of tattoos and the aesthetics of couture fashion, resulting in designs that feel both intimate and ornate. Andy’s practice reflects on how we preserve fleeting moments in an increasingly digital world, offering a quiet, reflective approach to body art.

Common design themes: Gems, Tiles, Swirls, Jewels, Film stills
