Realistic Tiger Tattoo
Hey, thanks for looking at my site. In this post I would like to share the last hand tattoo I worked on. Hands in my opinion are the hardest area of the body to tattoo, if you go a little too far in, or a little too far out, the ink can easily be drawn out of the hand. Not only that, but it also depends on how the client rests his hands after the tattoo session. If the client is always lifting weigh, is not the best for healing, so rest is imperative when getting your hand tattooed. I tried to give as much advice as possible to my client, he seemed like a nice and careful guy, who cared for his tattoo, so fingers crossed we will get a good heal on this realistic tiger hand tattoo. However, if we need touching up a little, which most hands tattoo need, we already have our touch up session booked in. So I think, in the end, it’s all about caring for your tattoo, sometimes not all tattoos heal great, that could be on the client or the tattoo artist too. Once the tattoo is out in the streets, we can’t watch our clients all the time, some clients are really careful with their healing process, some not so much. So I try to tattoo people with the better attitude, in order to have a smooth process, and a good experience. Thank you, and I hope everyone is well and keeping safe.

It was a pleasure working with Ade, he was willing to put time to his tattoo, and make it the best it could be, without limits with time and budget. When you are marking your body for life, and you limit it with time and budget, you are limiting your tattoo. I was sure to invest as much time as possible in his tattoo, in order to have a satisfying outcome. We built a good relationship, and that’s the best feeling you can have as a tattoo artist, is when you meet people with the same attitude as you, and you both like to do things properly, we work as a team, we get through anything, if the client has the right attitude, then you end up becoming friends. In the end, I can only be grateful to have clients like Ade, who inspire me to carry on doing what I do, which is not only give a tattoo but a good experience as well. Thank you Ade

A pound of flesh, Rose Tattoo
In times of lockdown in the UK, a pound of flesh is a saviour. I had to go in the studio and tattoo a fake hand, it was my client for the day. I was just happy to get out of the house and be able to feel a bit of tattooing, for all this time we are not allowed to be tattooing. I choose to do a colourful rose, I enjoy doing roses. Hopefully more coming my way. Hope everyone is keeping safe, and take care.
Native Indian traditional Sketch
Sometimes, going back to traditional art is a must for me, in the era of digital art, is imperative to take advantage of the infinite possibilities, digital art has to offer. However, considering how much digital art can make our life easier, and making faster achievements possible, I do still go back to traditional art. And the biggest reason why, is the feel of it. Nothing feels like traditional art. Digital art is amazing, however it feels like playing drums in an electric kit, it’s not gonna feel as good and as exiting as playing in a traditional physical kit. This Native Indian has a feel of strength, courage and leadership, if you are interested to have the this original traditional piece, make sure to check my shop section, to purchase this one of piece of art. Thank you
Robot 3D full sleeve tattoo by Louis Santos
Hey everyone, thanks for visiting my website. In this post I would like to share a sleeve I had the opportunity to finish before the lockdown. That was my first robot full sleeve. I took the challenge, as I’m very passionate about sci-fi movies. That’s probably what helped me to be able to free hand all the robot shapes on his arms, as i have watched Transformers loads of times. I was also sure to follow the shape of his body as much as possible. Not forgetting to mention that was Roy’s first tattoo, and he wanted to do it properly. I explained in our consultation, that it takes dedication and a lot of patience, which it pays off in the end. I tried to look after him as much as I could, as we added multiple layers to his sleeve in order to achieve a 3D effect. Tattooing Roy was a natural process, we were really patient with each other, we like the same kind of sports, and lifestyle, so it was a really nice experience overall. Thank you Roy
Geisha Digital Painting by Louis
In times of lockdown, keeping busy is important not to loose your motivation. I have been looking at a lot of digital paintings lately online, studying is important. So I got inspired by a Chinese artist to do that digital paint. It’s a bit frustrating being in lockdown, but I’m grateful to have art with me to keep me going, and I also have personal hobbies, so I’m never really bored. Life is a gift and we should cherish it everyday. I hope everyone is keeping safe.

Realistic Buddha Tattoo by Louis
It’s good to be back at work. We are keeping it simple at the studio, not too many people, that’s the advantage of being private. In this post, I would like to remind perhaps one of my favourites from this year, a Buddha I did on one of my favourite clients Andy. We have a good open minded conversation about life, and having a good laugh also contributes to a positive outcome. I will be tattooing Andy next month, and I look forward to see which more awesome ideas he has, thank you Andy for being such a cool guy over the years. Thank you for reading
