Some healed and some fresh on mikes front. We obviously didn’t get to the shading on the stomach, Iykyk.  Thanks for sitting so well despite being in agonising pain - I’ll make it up to you with more pain next time 🖤  DM or email for bookings ✌🏼

Here’s a flail that I tattooed yesterday, unbelievable to post something from just yesterday considering a several year backlog, but I’ve always been a renegade.  There’s also a healed skull spider and a sweet love heart from many moons ago.  Oh also I should probably mention that I’m working Calgary show next month, I’ll make a proper announcement soon but this can just be our little secret as you’ve read this far through a boring caption that’s largely just rambling at this point - thanks for your dedication. 🖤  DM or email for bookings ✌🏼

Wanna work with us?

We’re looking for a tattooist to join us at Avant Garde Tattoo. We’re a private studio a few minutes walk from Cheltenham town centre, so there aren’t any walk-ins wandering through the door – you’ll need your own local client base (or be close enough that your clients don’t mind the trip).

It’s a fixed weekly chair rent (no percentages, no mysterious maths), you choose your own days, consumables are provided, and free parking can be included. We’re a friendly bunch, and the studio has a relaxed, drama-free atmosphere.

You don’t need to be an “award-winning international artist”, we’re just after someone who’s good at tattooing, easy to get along with, and doesn’t make life harder than it needs to be.

If that sounds like you, use the contact form to get in touch. Worst case, you’ve wasted thirty seconds. Best case, you’ve found a fresh start at a new studio 🤝
