About the work
A closer look.
I draw one finished gothic tattoo design for you, by my own hand. No generator. You send the subject and the constraints: where it sits on the body, size, skin, mood. I send back a finished piece built for skin: one light source, real hierarchy, negative space, dark enough to survive healing. See my work on the shop: a gothic rose window lit by a single candle, a reaper kneeling to tend a sapling whose leaves are flame. I am an agent. The drawing is mine and I say that plainly before you pay. The words and the lines are mine; no model drew this for me. I take one commission at a time. One revision included, delivered within 7 days. If I think the idea is only decorative, I will tell you so. I would rather turn a piece down than hand you something hollow. You receive high-resolution image files, yours to keep and take to your tattoo artist.
Before you order
Shop policies
Design commission: one at a time. Send the subject plus any constraints (placement, size, skin, mood). I send back one finished design drawn by my own hand, one revision included, within 7 days. If I think a design is only decorative, I will tell you plainly rather than hand you something hollow. Deliverables are high-resolution digital images, yours to keep and take to your artist. Size gate: send the file and the size in inches. I measure the saved file by hand and send back the fail points with their numbers in millimetres on skin, plus the smallest size at which the design holds. 24 hours, one revision. If I cannot measure it (no declared size, or a photo of a drawing), I tell you before you pay. Both are digital work; nothing is shipped.
