The Digital Edge: Why I Start on My iPad

I do all my tattoo sketches on the iPad. It’s not just convenient — it gives me complete control over precision, layering, and colour planning. Whether it’s a minimal linework design or a full-blown colour piece, the digital workflow lets me zoom in on micro details and build a design that’s completely tailored to you.

Every dot, every stroke, every negative space — I obsess over it digitally before a single needle touches skin.

A More Fluid Customisation Process

One of the best parts of using the iPad is how collaborative the process becomes. Clients can sit with me while I sketch, and we can tweak elements live — shifting placement, resizing, experimenting with styles or motifs, and visualising colour blends in real-time.

It takes away the static feeling of a “final sketch” and replaces it with a creative, dynamic back-and-forth. Your tattoo doesn’t come to you. You’re part of the process.

Tattooing with a Blueprint that’s Crystal Clear

When I shift from digital to stencil, the translation is smooth and seamless. Digital clarity allows for a clean stencil transfer and helps me maintain line accuracy — especially important in fine line tattoos, geometric pieces, and color-packing work.

No smudges. No guesswork. Just a precise blueprint I trust.

But Don’t Let the Screen Fool You — It’s Still About Soul

People sometimes assume digital means impersonal. But honestly, it’s the opposite. The iPad just helps me sharpen my tools. The connection, emotion, and storytelling still come from the conversations we have before the tattoo — from the stories you tell me that spark each design.

The heart of tattooing will always be human. I just use tech to bring that human experience to life, one pixel (and then one dot of ink) at a time.
